Category Archives: kid products Hello and Happy New Year to you! I’ve been out of the studio for a few weeks and excited to get back to work. I’m so thrilled to have a new website and branding in the next month or so. I hope you’ll stay in touch. I’m sharing a bunch of new work with the...  Hey there. I wish I could share more from this shoot but need to hold off a bit longer. I’m just loving the results though and I can’t say enough good things about being patient and shooting film (when you can). It’s really magical. Happy holiday weekend to you!

Patricia, so sorry for the delay! I’ve been a little extra busy with the holidays. RPL does make a huge difference on using film. I didn’t want it to be true but the extra money and time it costs there is worth every penny. I love everything that comes back. I’ll ask twitter about NY labs but I have never heard of a great lab there. If I lived in NY I’d probably still use RPL. Thanks for the comment! S.

thanks so much for the detail Sarah! that was so helpful! you really have beautiful images and your film work is outstanding. I agree with your ‘shoot film often’ advice … I’ve been so slow to get through a roll … it’s intimidating

Hi Kasandra! Thanks for the comment. Aside from other benefits of film the real joy is that there is very little that is done to them when they get back from the lab. I use Richard Photo Lab in LA. I’ll be honest and say that I’ve tried many other labs as well and years ago I used a great lab in San Francisco called New Lab that went out of business. Richard Photo Lab is above and beyond the best option out there (other than maybe in NY) that I have found. I ship them the film and about 7-10 business days later I get a link to download the files. I edit my selects using the rating system in Bridge and I open each file individually. Typically the most I’ll ever do is adjust the levels a tiny bit and I might dodge/burn here or there but I only spend a few seconds with each file. Then I re-size them in Bridge so they are web-ready and that’s it. It’s pretty wonderful to save hours and hours of processing and on top of that I think the results are better than when I shoot digitally. However, it’s a trade-off because it’s a slower process and it’s expensive to buy and develop film. I’m finding though that I’m moving more towards film this year than other years. It’s all relative so it might not work the same for you. The most important thing is to shoot film often or you won’t see the benefits. I’d say that you need to shoot at least 30 rolls to get started. Hope this was helpful!

I love this. I just ordered me a new film camera. I hope to try it out as much as possible.  My apologies for the lack of posts. I’ve been working on a big re-brand with my friends over at Visual Supply Co., shooting a ton, planning an exciting event this Fall with the lovely Carrie of urban baby LA, as well as producing a bunch of new lifestyle kids shoots. Not to mention enjoying the... by Sarah no comments  Happy Friday to you. I’m really excited about this post. I hope you like it. I remember the first time I saw MilK Magazine.

Thanks for the reply, Erika! I just checked the links and they work but perhaps they don’t work because you are in a different language. I used the google translate links. Hmm…Let me find the links for you, sorry! Again, thanks for the comment and lovely work. Your ‘rock around the clock’ video is cute!

oh my! I looove this! I love this magazine as well, so inspiring! Great interview! Thanks for this…ah, the first 2 links are not working ;-( The part which says: “You can meet everybody online, here.” and also the part: “We’ve also got an online version of the magazine, here.”

what a great post, I just found your blog and wanted to let you know it looks great!

It is a small staff by our standards. I think we’d have more magazines in business if they paired down a bit. 
July 1, 2011 - 1:12 pm
What a fantastic article. Such a professional magazine with only 12 people on staff. That is astonding. That would never fly in the states. Right?
