Hi everyone!

I've been using digital and my foray into photography has always been digital (Pentax). However, over the last few months I've been thinking a lot about my style. At first this led me to think Canon FF DSLR... but then due to circumstances, I ended up looking into making FILM my look :smile:

Listening to Inside Analog Photography Podcast didn't help either :wink:

I like to shoot weddings/events/portraits/street and just general people photography. I love shooting documentary style more so than doing posed formals.

I usually shot film as a side thing, but now it's becoming more of my thing.

Anyways, just wanted to say hi!!

Oh wow. Thanks everyone for your very welcoming ... uh... welcomes!!

I still like the digital for some work - strobist, waterproof (Pentax K-7) usability and digital video and quick snap shots that I need to upload, but otherwise I love using film.

And I think I just found my thing: Kodak PORTRA!

I'd love to meet up with fellow film photog-ers in the area. We're quite a rare breed these days.
Could be a plan. What area of this great city do you live ? My email is in my signature.... Let me know.... Dennis :D :D :D :cool:
