LABOUR OF LOVE

Sometimes people ask if shooting polaroid is worth it when the film is quite expensive and they can be pretty temperamental at times.

For me it is a complete labour of love.  The process, the dedication, the mistakes, the surprises, the craft.. you have to invest in the relationship.. give it your time, not give up at the first hurdle.. and that's when the rewards come.

After leaving this polaroid to develop I squealed taking it out of my bag.  The butterflies as you turn it over.. you have no idea what each exposure will give you but when you hit it.. it is the BEST feeling.

The texture, the detail.. the life.. all in one beautiful piece of art.

It just gives me so much pleasure.
