Olivia Macklin on 35mm + Why I love Shooting Film | Los Angeles, California | Travel + Film

This October I visited my dear friend Olivia in LA while she was on hiatus from LA to Vegas. Needless to say, we had a great time basking in the glorious weather and eating our way down Abbot Kinney. 

While I was in California, I exclusively shot film -- something I've been challenging myself to do more often. When I shoot film, I pay so much more attention to composition and aesthetics because I only have 30 or so exposures per roll (aka 30 moments to capture). Given how expensive it is to develop film, this forces me to stop and think before hitting the shutter. 

 Check out some highlights from my trip below.

 All shot on my Canon A1 + Portra 400. I get all my film developed by The FIND Lab.
