Tag Archive for ‘kodak’ at Ryan Muirhead Photography

I have been getting a few questions lately about how I have been doing my recent black and white work. It is incredibly simple to replicate this look.

1. Shoot in open shade. Find a spot that has very even shaded light. Add some positive or negative fill as needed, but I generally dont.

2. Load up some Kodak bw400cn.

3. Take an ambient light reading and over expose by 1 to 2 stops.

4. Click

5. Send film to Richard Photo Lab

6. The End

I don’t mean to over simplify it but there is literally noting else I am doing.

Sometimes it can be so hard to break away from what you know how to shoot and try something really new. I have had an idea kicking around about reading underwater and this was the first attempt to execute it.

Kodak Tri-X film (pushed 2 stops to iso 1600)/Contax 645/80mm lens @ f2.8
