You already saw the Behind the Scenes HERE of our Instax and now you have seen the real deal!

I love everyone that was involved in this shoot, each person really brings something different and unique to the team. We all just really like being around one another and its amazing how well we feed off eachother and grow. It's rare when you find those people in life, so when you do it's always a blast!

SFP: Just a few Film shots in the water.

  Friday- Jacob hanging at the river

 Usually we float the river but since we haven't had rain in months it's too low, but it's all good, this river spot was so much fun! We all had fun taking turns on the rope.

 I'm just soaking up the sun.

 Saturday- on Canyon Lake we had 13 people,  2 boats, beautiful water mixed in with a little cray cray. Good times!

Oh man the video's from this trip...

Saturday- after the lake we wanted to go back to the river spot for more fun in the sun, but after an hour or so, the majority of us ended up having nap time.

 Music. Water. Sun. SFP. what more could you want on the weekend?

All photos: Lonnie Webb

We couldn't decide which shots from the river and the lake that we wanted to post because there is seriously thousands. We are actually still uploading them and then there's all the editing... UGH! Last night Lonnie emailed some film shots he took from the weekend and it made our night! We just took him to the airport Monday night and he already had these developed and sent over. Awesome dude. Wishishing that all the photo's were from film... That boy has mad skillzzzz with the camera, check out his site HERE.

Which do you prefer? Film or Digital?

FEATURE FRIDAY: Everything I Own

My Friend, Ruben, is a photographer and when he first told me about his fantastic final photography project (at Texas Tech University), I knew I had to share it with the world outside of Lubbock, TX. I don't need to explain too much because he does a great job in his statement below, but I will tell you that for an entire semester, Ruben photographed and categorized EVERYTHING he owned.

Panel One of Every Thing I Own by Ruben Castillo

Everything I Own by Ruben Castillo

I am twenty-five years old and in my home I store roughly four hundred and seventy objects. I’ve collected all these objects my whole life some were given to me others I purchased or maybe found some but for whatever reason I chose to keep them.  For “Everything I Own”, I photographed all of these items and sorted them starting with objects that I valued the most and ending with those that I least valued.  While I don’t believe these objects define me as a person I do believe they tell a story about me what I enjoy, what I value the most, and my past or maybe where I maybe heading to in the future.  By displaying them all together, they create a self-portrait of who I am today. 
I choose to place the objects in a very uniform order creating a grid that reads left to right. The grid allows for an organization of all these objects creating a visual coherency between all them.  This need to organize and create a visual reference and exploration of myself comes partly from curiosity but mainly from where I find myself in my own life.  At the moment I’m in my senior year of my undergraduate degree and completing my final semester.  It’s been the busiest semester and sometimes the hardest semester of my life and has forced me to really begin taking a more serious approach to my education.  And as I venture to the next step in my adult life I find myself very confused about what my next step will be and very unsure of what the future holds but by creating this grid and in a sense organizing myself I am able to possibly give some insight to these questions. - Ruben Castillo

After he explained his process to me, I thought about everything I owned, what I valued most and about the things I have laying around. There's probably a lot of items that I don't even acknowledge or serve no purpose. I'm not sure I could have done this project, it would have been way too overwhelming for me, owner of a lot more that four hundred and seventy objects. If the objects we own do tell our story, at least I know mine would be very detailed ;)

Ruben, I'm so proud of you and your brain!
