Recently, I had to shoot portraits on film for my darkroom photography class. I asked my friend Chris if I could shoot photos of him for a couple of reasons. First of all, he has a very expressive face, and I was hoping to capture a lot of emotion. Second, I had an idea of using old book pages in the shoot—something that I just so happen to be obsessed with. I knew that the book pages would be a good fit for Chris, because he's a big reader/writer/thinker. Not to mention, he has an amazing way with words. I encourage you to check out his work here. I shot a roll of film, but I also shot digitally to check lighting and have some other copies of the photos. Lucky for me, Chris was incredibly patient as I fiddling with the backdrop and tried to figure out how to best capture each shot.
