RIP Kodachrome
Today, kodachrome officially died.
This makes me terribly sad but, of course, its really been gone for years. As much as I love the look of a kodachrome print, I never used the film and apparently very few (or at least not enough) people have for many many years. Too bad…
Kodachrome color slide film was introduced by Kodak Eastman in 1935, and became the standard film for both amateur and...

Today, I’m super excited that our wedding photos are on the blog “Style Me Pretty”, which I read daily while wedding-planning, and still check nearly every morning over coffee because it is always full of beautiful...
Student Posters!

They’ve been working hard for a few weeks on redesigning posters for the film “Children of Men”.
