  Today on the blog, we have collected some of our favorite medium format portraits from the past few years.

The camera was lovingly restored and fitted for 120 film by Conner. A few days leading up to the wedding I met with Jane at a coffee shop where she loaned me the camera. I had never used it before and Jane showed me possibly the only person on youtube that had a how-to video for it. I watched the video and taught myself the basics of the camera and practiced with a roll of film. T ..read more
