Group shots

Sometimes I cheat.

The more people in a frame, the more faces you have to capture at just the right moment. I'm not always that good, so sometimes I cheat. This is an example where I shot 6-7 frames, and then mashed up the faces in post. But, what makes this shot is the lighting. You can't fake great lighting.

Film still has a purpose

Digital is fast, film is slow.

Sometimes slow is exactly what you need.

I still shoot digital and film. Sometimes the pictures are required quickly, or just need to get on the web soon. Other times, I get to slow down and turn simply capturing a moment into telling a story and really making art.
