Yesterday was a crazy day. I had two art shows, but not only that I had to somewhat professionally hang 33 frames for one of them and still had to complete my piece for the other before both events started. My little photo club of four friends, Grain, had a [...]

I got something very exciting while in San Diego last week. After strolling around inside the San Diego Museum of Photgraphic Arts, I couldn’t help myself in the gift shop full of goodies. I walked out with a Muse soft focus Lensbaby. It’s pretty wild to use and I love the [...]

Remember when nearly a year ago I started teaching Holga photography? Well this morning I got the most satisfied feeling from that class. I went to Coffee Garden in the 9th & 9th district at 10:30 am to meet with a new client of mine (I sound so professional, oh [...]

Tomorrow is my first day teaching, ever. Through the University of Utah’s Lifelong Learning program, I am putting on a 6 week workshop on toy cameras, focusing on Holgas. It will be taught every Tuesday from 6:30-8:30pm. I have a few seats left so if you’re in the area and [...]

I had no idea there was black and white film in this. No idea. But these are the most frames in 1 roll that I’ve liked. I got 10 great photos out of 12 frames. Not so bad, right?

It’s official. And crazy. I’m teaching Holga Photography via the University of Utah’s Lifelong Learning program, this summer. The catalog and web information won’t be official until all the details are in order so stayed tuned for links to sign up, if you’re interested. I’m looking forward to it! I [...]

Just got these lovelies back. I’m starting to think I should start experimenting with cross processing. I love how these turned out, but I love the wild colors Holgas can capture. This last one is the one I had mentioned I couldn’t wait to see how it turned out. I [...]

With the short time I had between getting back from San Francisco and dinner with the family for Christmas Eve, I painted a new holga camera to give to my cousin Britnee. With the first stroke of purple paint, I immediately regretted this decision. Her boyfriend Mark had been secretly [...]

Class is over. Dang, those 4 weeks went by fast. But all worthwhile for I have a second love. Letterpress shouldn’t mind since Holga is more of a hobby than a way of life. Here are my favorites from the last assignments: Eva taught me a lot. Where to get [...]

Guys. Guess what. During my first Holga class at the University of Utah’s Lifelong Learning center we all had to introduce ourselves and the teacher said, “My name is Eva. My husband and I own a little letterpress shop in Heber County (UT),” “Sycamore Street Press??” I interrupted. So rude. [...]
