Nicole Caldwell Photo

On the Set

Venture on the set with our wedding clients Alex and Liz, then follow us into the darkroom as we print archival traditional black and white negatives for a final fine art presentation. Photographed with New 55 film, a reincarnation on the polaroid type 55 4×5 large format film.

The film produces both a negative and positive and negative print.  The negative contains a chemical pod which develops after shooting, and I can fix, and dry the negative, right in my own make shift darkroom, which I convert from the bathroom!  The film is not perfect, and it’s the happy accidents that make it so great.  Each one is original with it’s own unique characteristics.
