A women wearing a bright fishermans sweater and beige toque holds a long oval shell open in front of her face. FIlm soup, 35mm.

SARA PICKS UP SEASHELLS ON THE SEASHORE. I love the way the shapes of the shells mimic the shape of the surf boards. These two photos always felt like they belonged together. Shot on Portra400, soaked in sea water, developed in my kitchen.

Image created by purposefully soaking film in sea water. Resulting in wile colouring and tie dye feeling. Image of shows two surf boards on the beach.

SURF. Surf boards waiting on the beach. Their oblong shapes are repeated throughout the psychedelic colouring caused by intentionally damage to the emulsion with seawater. This first attempt at film soup has been really fun. Portra 400.
