The Streets of Portland | FIND Portland

The final day of FIND (Film is Not Dead) we headed into downtown Portland and were given an hour or so to wander, experiment, photograph strangers, and shoot personal work. I shot both color film on 35mm and a black and white film I’d never used before, Acros 100, on my Hasselblad. These square format black and whites taken on the Hasselblad are definitely my favorites out of all I shot at the workshop. I have always loved street photographs and portraits, but have never really done it myself until this workshop pushed me out of my comfort zone and I started forcing myself to approach people and ask to take their portrait. I love how these turned out and it’s always fascinating who you’ll meet and the stories you’ll hear. I love this collection of photographs and plan to make more.
