Lomo Sailboats

I spent the week of Fourth of July at my very favorite beach in the world: Grayton Beach, FL. Every year they have this great little sailboat race called the Rags to Riches Regatta, and this year I was able to photograph it! This hot pink boat is right about at the spot where my husband & I were married almost two years ago.

Earlier today I had a conversation with a fellow photographer about how often I used heavy post-production techniques to "stylize" a photograph. It depends on the purpose of the photo, and of the photo itself. After our chat I realized I had never processed these and thought they'd look pretty sweet as lomo images. Do you think I was right?

When packing up to move a couple of months ago, I found two old rolls of film... Remember film? I brought them to the developer, and only one roll came out - the other was just too old, I suppose. The other roll was from five years ago and held images of a boat trip my now-husband (but then boyfriend of less than a year) took to celebrate my birthday. These are my two favorite images from the roll... Nope, none of me. I was a solid 10 pounds heavier. Nobody needs to see that.

Do you see the duck?

I love the dreamy quality the expired film gave these images...
