Although I am primarily a digital shooter, I've always been fascinated by film and its nostalgic quality. It has a permanence to it that doesn't exist in DSLR photography, which means we have to be that much more deliberate with what we choose to capture. This past weekend, J and I took his new film camera out for a spin. Armed with his trusty prime lens and some great film recommended by a friend (Kodak Portra 160), we set off into the chilly streets of New York's West Village to test out the first roll.
