Kacie Marie for The Jungle
🕑 Added 2017-03-05 00:46:12 +0000 UTC I've never been a big black and white shooter. Even when I was shooting all Black and White film for school I was always shooting color digital on the side for myself, but more and more I find myself drawn to grayscale tones. It started when I first discovered wet plate. It just seemed to trap so much more dimension than neopan, plus my love of large format camera's has been one I fostered since the first time I played with swings and tilts on my calumet cadet.Compared to wet plates though digital black and white didn't have the same life to it...at least for me. I've seen other people do it great, but I didn't get the feel I was looking for until this shoot with Kacie. While playing around with the images from our shoot in ACR I accidentally created the black and white edit I'd always wanted. Super deep blacks, and very muted highlights...not to contrasty...almost collodion esque. I know its generally frowned upon to try and recreate a film feel with digital, but I don't care. I think it came together.
Since Kacie is my longest ongoing collaborator I always feel especially pushed to do something new with her. We both try and push ourselves beyond our normal series to try something new. We go off series a lot, normally it creates a new series. Kacie was one of the first for the original Temperance tests, the first for The Jungle, and the only person I've shot for every series I've done.
