Anna: Pregnancy Portrait

March 7, 2010 by tomslot

Yesterday I had the luck to document one of Anna’s last days before giving birth. We organized the the session at the comfort of her house, which has a spectacular view over snowy Prague.

The last few frames were shot on black and white film (Ilford HP5) and manually developed in Rodinal. I think the classical, timeless and grainy look of genuine film is very suitable for recording the memories of such important moments.

I would like to give special thanks to Anna Kazanova for helping me during this assignement.

Back to Film

February 22, 2010 by tomslot

Many photographers, who moved to digital from time to time feel a need to prove themselves that their basic photography skills are still relevant and they can still shoot on film with all its constraints (limited number of frames, low and fixed ISO, etc).

Here is my take:  a series shot with Leica M6 + Nokton 35/1.2, Kodak Porta 400NC. The models are my Kyrgyz friends: Alima and Azamat.

For some pictures I used a video light with umbrella for a fill (Lowell Id-Light).

Narinder in Prague

February 21, 2010 by tomslot

Narinder will be getting married in Wolverhampton, UK in April. I will have the honor of acting as a photographer during his wedding. Here is a small teaser: a couple of shots I took at the club Cathedrale, while Narider was visiting Prague with his family and friends and enjoying his last bachelor days.

Shooting an Indian wedding has been my long time dream, ever since I saw one in Singapore. I am really looking forward to April!
