Been experimenting with cyanotype for the past couple of months before diving into tricolor cyanotype. I eventually want to try other chemistries, but for now, I’m starting with whatever I can get my hands on.

My first prints were done in MYC order. As I kept reading and experimenting, I learned that the conventional CMYK printing order is actually YMC, so that’s what these studies are. Then I stumbled across someone on Reddit who included a K layer in their separations, which I’m hoping to try next.

Happy with the progress, no matter how slow. 🥰

Seeing all these 2016 posts going around made me dig through my own archive. Back then, I didn’t even have my own camera yet. I wanted to start with this shoot I did for friends for their EP (which I reedited last night). One of the highlights of that year. ✨

I was about a year into actually being a working photographer, just moved out, fresh out of a three-year nursing job, still figuring out if the hobby I’d been into since '06 could actually be a career.

I remember being so proud of these. They ended up on an actual EP and in a printed magazine. 🤯 That still feels wild to say out loud. I imagine telling this to my highschool self, the one who had just gotten her first digital camera. She would’ve flipped. She wouldn’t have believed it.

Looking at these now, I see a version of myself still finding her footing. I still feel that way sometimes. There was so much I didn’t know back then. As I look through the photos, I catch myself imagining how I’d frame things now, how I’d compose differently, how I’d ask them to move instead of holding still. Nonetheless, this band, this EP, still holds. It will always be one of my all time favorites.

Haay, mid-20s. Full of life and energy. I kinda get now why they say youth is wasted on the young. Still grateful this was part of my beginning. 🙂‍↕️
