FAMILY ON FILM

 A mix of cheapie Fujifilm Superia and pricey Kodak Portra on Contax 645, Contax T2 and Canon 1V from the past few weeks.

CHRISTINA + CESAR // KOREA PRE-WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

I love international couples.  Christina is of Korean descent but was raised in London, Hong Kong and Singapore.  Cesar's parents are from the Dominican Republic, but he grew up in New York City.  They met while they were students at Columbia University and currently reside in Singapore.  They swung through Seoul to have an engagement lunch with her extended Korean family at the famous Sam Cheong Gak restaurant, and arranged for me to take some photos of them beforehand.

I was happy to hear of Christina's appreciation of film, having taken a few darkroom classes as a student.  I put a Contax 645 through its paces along with my workhorse Canon 1V.  All shot on Kodak Portra 400; the B&W photos were converted in post.

BORA + DAVID. KOREA PRE-WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER.

David and Bora flew in from New York City to honor Bora's parents and her heritage with a traditional Korean wedding. I was very blessed to be a witness and to be entrusted with documenting their singular love for one another. David plays lead guitar and backup vocals for The Vanguard.
