Disposables // #2



























Remember when I posted photos from a disposable camera last time? Yeah, I said that I had another camera that I'd be developing soon. Well, a couple months later...here we go! No one develops disposables in my town anymore, so I had to drive twenty minutes south to a different town to get these. Disposable film cameras are fun... but I don't really know if they are worth it. Oh well - maybe I'll just get them a couple times a year for a treat. ;)

Fortunately this time around I came away with more successful photos than last time! I learned that enough light is essential with these rinky-dink cameras. You have to use flash unless you are in complete daylight. So... that's basically what I did. I loved the surprise of taking these out of the envelope and seeing what I deemed worthy of a taking a photo of months ago. The ones shown above are from when I went to Santa Cruz with friends; a surprise mini wedding/going away party; hanging out with Lijah; and the top one is from the Rivertown Revival Festival. I really do like the film quality, even if they are kind of out of focus and grainy. It's different from my normal crisp and beautiful DSLR photos... so I like the change! If you ever post photos from a disposable camera, link me up! I'd be curious to see! xx

  4. Disposable cameras seem totally worth it!! I feel like they give this homey, aged kind of vibe which is really neat. These turned out so cool. :)

    I'm seriously wanting to get a disposable camera now just so I can play around with it. It seems kind of hard, especially when you have to worry about the light and not being able to adjust things!
