I love this new scheduled post feature Patreon introduced recently. It allows me to sit down when I have the time to write and get as much work done as possible. The only downside; I sometimes forget when things are coming out, then I go and check my Patreon profile and say "When did that release?!"
Well, that has h...

While Reed and I were on our way home from Phoenix we stopped by an abandoned horse racing track. We had tried previously to get into the space but we got caught and had to run away! We shot a few digitals that came out amazing as well as some Instax!
The first part of this update is somewhat smaller. Simply because I was low on film when Circa was in town when we shot at Bluff Cove. However, it is an update nonetheless! The exposure above was shot in Venice Beach after great tacos, a stroll down the boardwalk at night time and a beer at an overly crowded and expensive bar. I...

Going live at 3:30P.M. - PST! Circa at Bluff Cove. Available for $5+ patrons! You do not want to miss this set, it happens to be one of my favorites I have ever shot with a different model than my muse.
Pledge up and gain access!

What perfect timing... Reed and I shot in this studio just in time to process the images and get them live for Valentine's Day. By just in time, I mean these were shot on January 7th. Because of the holiday and also just how much Reed and I love thi...

The last part of September's Update. Finally!
'September's Update' simply means the Instax were shot in the month of September. Which is exactly the month Reed and I took our amazing trip to Yucca Valley. This is the last installment of the Yucca Valley Instax. I believe Reed will be starting a new tier soon, mirror...

Finally, another update.
Now that we are in Janurary of 2017 and I am just finishing up September's update of 2016, we can all say I was majorly slacking. Well, not slacking. I simply had a bunch of other things on my plate and from previous posts you know that getting The Instax Library updated is quite a process. ...

The very secod I saw the Polaroid Sun660 on Impossible Project's website I knew I wanted it. At first, Reed was hesitant on us purchasing the camera since I had just bought my D810 and 24mm 1.4. One day while we were on the phone, I had an epiphany while talking to her about the Sun660. "What if we shot a series of three or four...

It has taken many vigerous hours to get all of these Instax scanned. Start to finish it is about ten to fifteen minutes per photo. I guess the good thing is that I do not mind doing it in the least. I love being able to look at these exposures once again and reminisce of past times.
This is the second installment of...

We decided to wait until 'The Loft' Series was all released to annouce our third book collaboration as well as it being the second installment of 'The Loft' books. We decided to take one of our favorite sets from that weekend and turn it into a limited edition hard cover.
Filled with ten amazing images that will onl...

The end has come. As I think now, it is rather fitting that we release this final part of 'The Loft' series with only thirty-four days left in the year. Reed and I shot these photos back on Janurary Fourth, so in my mind it is only fitting that an amazing series shot at the very beginning of the year should only follow suite wit...

Yucca Valley.
There was so much anticipation for me and Reed working up to this trip. Booked so far out in advance it almost did not seem real when we were there. These are the first polaroids coming through of those days. Enjoy!
Ten of about two hundred or so.
Sitting on the left side of my desk is about two hundred additions to the Instax Library. Since this month has been such a busy month I have not been able to get around to the time consuming task of scanning, straightening, cropping, watermarking and uploading that extreme amount of instant...
At this point, I believe mostly all of the stories have been told, words have been said and pasts reminisced. This was mine and Reed's second huge project together. Next to The Stance Series. However, The Loft series definitely has more volume to it. I am still very sad to see it come to an end here soon.
Earlier in the d...
I might as well call this 'The Instax Library | Reed Update' since every single polaroid is of her. Which is not a bad thing, trust me. We were at the skate park again, this time a different outfit and with a paddle that says 'weep' on it. Can you guess w...

Sedona.
What a beautiful place it is. The colors captured even in mere instant film is phenomenal let alone what Reed and I captured on digital. I feel like a little kid on Christmas Eve, looking forward to all that is to come.
Pictured above is my favorite Instax out of the bunch that we shot in Sedona. Become a part o...

Needless to say, Instax...Instax...Instax! These stacks of film will be in the September update that will go live in October. However, I have a couple more parts to release for my August update for my $10+ pledges. One will be released tonight.
I will also be releasing some behind the scenes throughout the rest of this...

Flashing Lights.
The was the first day I was able to use my new SB-700 Speedlight. Eleven o'clock at night in the middle of a skate park was the perfect place to do so. Just as always Reed and I broke out our Instax cameras to be able to add to my library as well as get more exposures to send out to our patrons and sell o...
Access to the Instax Library ultimately gives you an even more exclusive look into the future. When I shoot instax I like to shoot them as almost part of the set. In the middle of shooting I will set down my digital, pick up my trusty Instax Wide and keep shooting. It keeps the vibe and the feel in the instax the same as the sho...

My first shoot in August was with Cheyenne and of course we shot instax! I only kept a few for myself on account that most of the film we used was hers. She did let me take the at first in order to scan them and share them with you guys! I believe most of them have been sold off to her followers and fans. There are a couple that...

By far, the longest set of 'The Loft' series. I have a very hard time deciding which outfit, look or set I like the best out of this series, but I think this one is near the top of the list. As I sit here thinking about Part V, it made me curious why this set is so much longer than the rest and I honestly cannot say for sure. I ...

These two stacks are just some of what will be added to the Instax Library this month. While Reed was here we shot over sixty new instax! All of which we love. There is something about instant film that I love. I think the biggest part of it is no matter how hard you try, you'll never get the same instax twice, which is a beauti...

I rarely ever buy new things for myself, but I guess this is the month to do so. D810, 24mm 1.4 ED, SB-700 Speedlight, 128GB SD card and of course some more instax wide film (80 exposures to be exact). In my browsing i came across the Impossible website. I had previously visited the website several months ago, but sadly the only...

Despite these being shot on Sunday, August Sixth, I decided to include them in the 'July Update' or else it would have been another month before they were added. I also would not have had an update to the library this month if I did wait. July was a slow month for me shooting wise. I had other things that needed my attention tha...

I cannot say this is the half way point. The real half way point was between Part III and Part IV. Since there is no Part 3.5, I guess we will call this half way. Once again; exciting, but saddening. I never want this series to end. Seeing as the photos are all finished and this Airbnb is no longer available to book, it do...

You will notice this is a smaller update to the library. I only added five instax this time around. Unfortunately, the trip I just had to Ohio was very task oriented. My main focus of the trip was getting Reed moved out of her apartment.
I did have all Saturday to shoot in Columbus, but I guess the winds were n...

With every part of 'The Loft' that we release I become excited to have more of this series live, but sad that this series is finite. Both Reed and I wish that we could shoot in that space over and over again. The space was so diverse and the lighting was phenomenal.
Similar to Part II, Part III is a smaller set. I honestly wou...
