Greetings beautiful people - I hope you all are starting off with a prosperous week. Although it's the 22nd, please pretend you received this newsletter yesterday on the 21st 😬 Just to give a brief welcome to all of the new subscribers and also to reiterate what exactly this newsletter is - simply put, on the 21st of every month, you'll receive an email that consist of a few shared images of my film photography (I started shooting with film at the beginning of the year and I've been using this newsletter as an opportunity to share/document my journey), a curated music playlist of 21 of my favorite songs of the moment, and invites to any happenings that may be occurring in between newsletters. In other words this isn't spam...you'll only receive one email a month. Now that I've gotten that out of the way...let's get into this newsletter.

Greetings beautiful people - I hope you all are having a prosperous week thus far! First I want to apologize for being 2 days late with sending this out, I was definitely experiencing technical difficulties 🤦🏾‍♂️. Secondly I want to take the time to welcome all of the new subscribers.

Good morning beautiful people - I hope you all are having a good day and starting off with a prosperous week. Yesterday I turned 31 and a few of the highlight moments were going to the Bargain Camera Show, having lunch with my Pops, going to The NOW Massage (thank you again Nikky!), and then having an amazing dinner - simply put, it was a special day for me!

Greetings beautiful people - I hope you all enjoyed the 1st day of summer. Mine was good but very long and truthfully it almost slipped away from me before sending out this monthly newsletter; in fact, I actually dose off from briefly “resting my eyes” while taking a break from writing it and let’s just say I lost 2 hours in time 🤦🏾‍♂️.

Greetings beautiful people - it’s that time of the month again and I’m just stopping by for my usual update. Though I was hoping I would have more new images to share with you this month but the fact of the matter is that I experienced a few bumps in the road regarding my equipment. 

Greetings beautiful people and Happy Easter to those who celebrate it! It’s that time of the month again and I’m just stopping by for my usual update. Last weekend I participated in a 3 day art book fair and I had a lot of new people sign up for this newsletter, so I first want to welcome you all…

Since I dedicated my 1st few rolls of film to acclimating myself to this new process, I didn’t really put to much thought into what I was shooting but by my 4th roll I was ready to carry out an idea; I figured why not start with some portraits - so I reached out to a few friends and below were the results. 

It’s the 21st of the month and as promised, I told you I would share the images from my first rolls of developed film…so they are! I shot 2 rolls on 2 separate cameras - 1 roll I made the rookie mistake of not loading the film correctly (and ultimately ended up with a blank roll) but the other roll was complete gold! Check them out for your viewing pleasures below!
