It took me quite a few months to finish this roll of film. I believe I started in early December and finished in February. Then it took me another 4 months to get the film developed. Sometimes that is the beauty of film – capturing something that is fleeting, forgetting about it, and then rediscovering it months later.

These photos were taken on a Fujifilm 400 ISO disposable camera.

Not too long ago I discovered The Indisposable Concept and immediately knew I wanted to do something similar. I decided to bulk buy some disposable cameras on eBay and start shooting!

I really enjoy the look of disposable camera photos, and the ease of taking the shots. You literally point and shoot. I’ve found that it’s a hit with all my friends too – I actually gave one of the cameras to my friend as part of her birthday present and it was immediately a talking point and everyone reminisced about what it was like before we all had iPhones.

As with most disposable cameras, not every shot got developed. I got back 20/27 shots. Hopefully next time more will turn out ok! Not every shot was worth posting either, so these are my favourites.

Shooting film with an 35mm SLR has been a life changing experience. I’m becoming so passionate and so invested in film photography. I’m hoping my photos will improve in time, and I’ll have more interesting subjects to take photos of. I’ve always enjoyed photos of people, photographers who capture life as it is. I hope I can do the same.

Went for lunch with my friend and 22 was the number for my order! I had an immediate positive reaction as 22 is my number 🙂
I have no recollection of taking this!
I got this charm bracelet for my 13th birthday but I recently added the airplane to it
Lets pretend this is not a life size cardboard cut out of Harry Styles with a witch hat on

Photos taken with my Pentax ME Super and Fuji Color 200 35mm film.I think this camera has really made me fall in love with film again.

I went through a long period last year where I felt a bit discouraged when it came to shooting film, but I’m honestly loving shooting film again. These were shot with my Pentax ME Super and 50mm lens on Lomography Color Negative 100 film. I wouldn’t say it’s my favourite film to shoot on – I think I need to stick with a higher ISO speed with the kinds of pictures I take but it’s always good to learn these things.

Also, just so you guys know I’ve decided to implement a posting schedule for the first time – I’m going to post every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Friday will be music-based whether it’s a playlist or something else (I have some ideas!). I also want to start doing videos and put my University degree to use.

This picture was so different in person and through the lens when I took it. I had positioned my hand to cover the sun coming in the window so my hand was backlit – I’m a little bummed it didn’t turn out and that the image I saw only exists in my head, but I do like this too.
Birthday confetti
I took this on the bus on my way to work on my last day. I really love the way it turned out.
I could take pictures of the sky forever
View from home – I never tire of it
Pink sky
Beautiful sky
I never get sick of palm pictures
We’re looking down on the clouds…
I’d spent the day with my best friend Emma and we stopped to get Petrol

My mum has had this statue forever and I’ve never cared for it much. It used to reside in the lounge room but luckily we’ve moved it to a different room now.
Last day of work. I cannot stress how hot this day was!
It was so hot this day and I felt really bad for this pregnant girl who was waiting for the bus!
Mum walking at the shops
The best time of day for me is between 3:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. when the sun sets.
This was a good day. I chilled at home and read Rookie magazine and then some friends came over.
My favourite time of day to take a bath…
