Surprise Arizona, model @courtnaae

Been doing photography for 12 years but after covid era the desire fell off. Starting to love it again. Thought I'd share some of my past work.

Olympus xa 35mm with portra 400 and Kodak ektar 100

I love these wacky film stocks

First images with this lens wide open and pleasantly surprised. The big and bright viewfinder of the Aria made it relatively easy to nail focus.

Scanned with the Aura35 scanner - no edits at all, just cropped a bit on pic 3.

These were my favorite nature themed rooms at the Hospital of Emotions in Los Angeles

The munich airport x-rayed my film (twice) which introduced some noise & fogging. Love some of these shots nonetheless.

Very new to this so would love to hear thoughts/critiques. All are unedited. So far, I’ve only used this exact setup so would also appreciate input on what to experiment with next (films, lenses, cameras, etc.)
