KODAK MOMENT of the Day

A great day for photography with friends

Candid photograph also a Kodak moment.

Driving through Twizel on the way back to Christchurch, this bridge is a bit of a locals spot. I used to jump off here back in the day when I did rowing so knew of its existence. Being severely hungover with the temperature hitting 30 degrees, we knew it would be a crime to not go for jump. An absolute necessity to wake you up in the mid Canterbury region.

Taken on Plaubel Makina W67 w Kodak Ektar 100 -

Shot on the University of Washington campus. Captured on Kodak Gold 200 for 120 film. This roll is probably my first successful use of Gold where I caught the exact colors I was looking for, and I’m looking forward to shooting on it more as we break through this summer.

This spring when I got covid my boyfriend took this candid photo of my cat Moon sleeping with me on the sofa. 

Sunny day with my family.

It’s simple things in life that mean the most 

My ten month old calls for her dada frequently throughout the day. If the front door is left open, she’ll stand at the screen door and call for him, hoping to see him come home. It’s the most precious thing I’ve ever seen!

This amazing Kodak moment was taken when we were on our holiday visiting Athens.

My little girl was throwing a tantrum wanting to be mischievous, and my husband was trying to calm her down and take care of her. And in the middle of her fussing and crying I kept taking photos and ended up taking this wonderful photo that is truly magical.

My world

Out and about running in beautiful spring weather. My little girl Ingrid (1) relaxing in the wagon ????????❤️

Wild Time with my Daddy at Animal Kingdom! 

All smiles during my first time to #horseshoebend. An incredible sight despite it was overcast, chilly and even rained when my friend and I visited just briefly. Of course I had to send some energy out to the devas of the area and for world peace.

At Mortimer farms enjoying the sunflower fields with friends. 

Myself and one of my best mates Harvey always catch up when Im in town by going for a late night photo walk. We find it's the best way we get creative, and we always bounce ideas off one another. Using my Rolleiflex, I heard I could pull of double exposures by recocking the shutter, albeit very meticulously. I managed to find some colder fairy lights, pushed the focus as far out as I could and shot the frame. Merely 50 metres from these fairy lights was a alleyway at Riverside Market in Christchurch which has some warmer lighting, perfect for a portrait. It all seemed to click into place as I framed Harvey. I used to work at Photo & Video in Christchurch, a very popular camera store, which is how me and Harvey met, so we went down the very next day to get the roll developed. As you can imagine, seeing the negative our faces were in awe.

Double exposure taken on Rolleiflex 3.5f and Portra 800 - 

My first vacation in the US in 2005 meeting my nieces and nephew. We took pro photos in the mountains with a family friend before I returned home to New Zealand. Its’ been 17 years and I miss them dearly. Hoping to reunite again some time soon.

My beautiful rag doll cross kitty. He’s such a stunner no matter what he’s doing, eating or sleeping.

Truth to be told, I detest any type of balloons. I’ve learned that balloons, especially Mylar balloons, are hazardous to our environment. Mylar balloons will never biodegrade, even much more harmful to wildlife and marine life. So, as a Deaf Afro-Latina artist, I decided to make a change. I did my first custom made shoes with pieces of Mylar balloon!

Our park day was rained out, so instead we grabbed some new books from the library and some treats from Starbucks. When we got home Argo made himself comfy in the kitchen with his cake pop and new book. 

This was a few days after I brought my new puppy home. I bought the milestone cards online as I am a beyond proud dog Mom and I have waited a long time for this moment. This is Yoda sat at the front door of his new forever home. 

Went for a spontaneous sunset picnic 

Catch the sweet moment of love.

When it’s 100+ degrees you get to have your first popsicle.. living your best life.. feeling the summer vibes. 

After a small hike into the bush we found this amazing hidden gem called Python Pool inside Millstream Chichester National Park. We were very lucky to have it all to ourselves that morning and we even went back later that afternoon to hike to the top of the waterfall to explore further.

Walking through battersea park in London and came across this cute moment.

we didn't have much when we decided to get married but we had chosen each other and that was the most important thing. we dream of visiting the world together. 

One of the most beautiful moments I experienced in the last few months. My best friends visited me in  Croatia and I took them up to the mount Srđ in Dubrovnik. While they were overwhelmed by the scenery I took my Leica and pressed the trigger. 

We went to Santa Monica first time and I asked my boyfriend to take a pic of me. I will be our moment Forever.

smile life deserves it????

This is a moment that my boyfriend and I hold near to our hearts ! We had such an amazing night out together and we love to document every moment together ! The pure joy in our faces when we get together is worth taking a picture so the moment lasts forever !

I quick snap of my best friend on her wedding day. Caught on my old Nikon N75 with a Nikkor 50mm f1.8 on Kodak Ektar 100

This photo was taken on my mom's birthday weekend. She's so proud of all the flowers she's grown and was so excited for a photo op by this blooming succulent ????????

Poland these days is really hot. Cute and fluffy cats like me are having hard times and need to find a good place to chill and hide from the sun. Can you relate? 

We were getting married after 7 years. We were going to do a fake send off with sparklers. We all got tickled & the shot was just perfect showing our natural unorganized chaotic joy!!!!

A picture of my daughter getting ready to go to story time on a marine base with her play mates. 

Most incredible thing in the world is a happy smiling child! Cousin bonding . 

Beautiful moments by the sea

My favorite human and my favorite place with my favorite film.

This was the high school graduation day of my younger siblings Shawn and Imany. 

They are the youngest of 5 kids (they are twins) and it was a special day not only for my mother but for all of us. 
 

I travelled from Austin, Texas to be able to go home and celebrate with them. 
 

This might be the first time that I’ve recognized that they are no longer babies, they are adults now.

Beautiful May Wedding! 

Warm summer evenings are full of golden light and magic. 

Una parte de nuestro corazón se queda en maligne lake 

Had the opportunity to shoot on the Bigwin recently with one of my favourite people Abigail. I thought I had left the sunset to long and miffed the timing for good light but I am really happy with the results. Dreamy shoot to say the least.

Hike on the Peñon de Ifach at Calpe

The light was so pretty at that moment, and Salem was looking playfully at birds but everything I got close she would look at me.

We were just having coffee, but the light was so beautiful and poetic that I had to capture it. The beauty of life is in the most trivial moments.
