Hi!
I'm photographer Carl Stoveland. Welcome to Analog 52. This is my project to shoot a roll of film every week on Fridays (more of a target than a resolution:-) who needs that kind of pressure right?). I live in Palm Beach County Florida so many of my posts will be Florida based, but if I am traveling somewhere I plan to shoot some film where I am.
A little about me. I have been a photographer my whole life. My earliest memories are of the darkroom my dad worked in at the Lab Authenticolor in NYC. I worked in labs myself for 15 years and have worked as a photographer professionally since my early twenties. My lab career spanned the 1990s and early 2000s so I was around for the emergence of digital and the demise of many smaller mom and pop labs. I have worked in both film and digital and am fully fluent in both.
The truth is I just missed shooting film. I like the look of it and the limitations of numbers of per roll forces you to shoot and think differently. Each week I'll shoot a different type of film in one of my camera ranging from 35mm to 4x5" and everything in between. If you are a fan of film or are just interested in older cameras join me for a new post on Fridays...
Process note: BW film I will develop at home. C41 and E6 films will be sent to a lab. Scanning will be done via DSLR scanning with a Pentax 645Z with a 120mm f4 macro lens using a negative supply stand, film holders and light. I will do a post about my setup in future.
