Sal and Julia's Despedida :(

I know it's been a while...

Here are some photos from our great friend's despedida...aka going away. Julia and Sal are a great down-to-earth couple who know how to get down. I'm going to miss these guys! I guess that's why I love photography - it's an opportunity to make memories and make images of people as you want to remember them.

I took these photos with my film camera using Kodak Portra 400. 

Pirates of the Chesapeake!

First off - Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there! To celebrate this important day, Arlene wanted to spend the day in Annapolis, Maryland, on the water and feast on some crabs. We took the boys to Pirate Adventures on the Chesapeake for a pirate cruise around the bay. Noah loved it! Afterwards, we feasted on some blue crab at Mike's Crabhouse.

For these photos I used my 35mm Yashica film camera with Portra 800. Now I got a little anxious to get them developed and went to Walgreens. You'll notice the "not-so-high" quality of the scans...I'll probably take them to a different lab to get better quality scans.  Anyway check them out below - these are straight out of the camera.
