My Fourth Roll
Categories: Business & Photography.
When I started my adventures with film, I had no idea what I was doing. Flash forward four rolls and I still have no idea what I’m doing. I’m really just winging it. When people ask where I get my film developed and I say CVS…I get SO many “Ughhhh…really?!” responses. I know, I am totally doing my film a disservice. I told myself I’d do that just while I got the hang of things, but everyone has said it doesn’t matter – the processing is awful and I should definitely send it off. Richard Photo Lab is the go-to company for film development, it seems, but I was afraid of the expense. I should really just suck it up, because I’m almost paying $20 as it is at CVS, so why not pay just a bit more for someone who knows what they are doing. If my film comes back from there crappy, I’ll know it’s not the processing – it’s me. Haha! I just feel so “blah” about these :-/
Here are some of my favorites from my fourth roll, but I really think for my 5th roll I’m going to take the dive and send it off. I’m so jealous of people who have actual camera stores they can take their film to. Since I live 45 mins to an hour from any big town, I’m out of luck for anything super local. I’d love to know, though – where do you get your film developed if you’re sending it away and not getting it done at a brick and mortar store? I’m dying for some alternatives to CVS and want to see what else is out there that’s comparable to RPL.

Although I have deep roots in Maryland where I grew up, I am absolutely in love with all things southern. I live on a farm in a small town in South Carolina with my handsome husband, my beautiful step-son, our two yellow lab fur-kids, and three spoiled horses. My blog is a journal of sorts. It’s where I can share all about the things I love so much: my family, our life together, and of course all of the amazing and wonderful people and pets whose story I get to tell.

I love collaborating with laid-back and down- to-earth couples who appreciate the value their wedding images will have for the rest of their lives, and I believe in unique weddings that are truly designed around two people and who they are together. I strive to create images that are emotional, organic, fresh, and genuine, but that will remain timeless twenty, thirty, or sixty years down the road. I believe in printed images, developing friendships with my clients, and having a completely relaxed and enjoyable wedding experience. Each and every story I get to tell is unique and I truly enjoy sharing all of the little pieces that together form this beautiful relationship.
I am currently booking weddings for 2013 and 2014, so please get in touch below to start the journey of documenting your love.
