that first photo :') so nice

the madman did a paid shoot with only two rolls of film? Nuts.

Please keep giving Monica the freedom zoom. I love the different perspectives.

I don't think a lot of people consciously realize the sfx that you add to your videos. I noticed it once and I look for it every time! Love it daddy Jason.

Every time I see you posted a new video, I go to Caleb's channel and play his video first. It's so I can first get his high hopes onto me and later come back to your video and get busted with a monotonic and depressive voice. It feels like a rollercoaster ride.

If you need another Palm Springs motel to photograph, The Trixie Motel would be perfect for that pink fantasy!

Hey thanks for the shout out! Kodachrome was absolutely a pain to develop. Not recommended…😅

love how monica's and jason's photo styles are completely different

In my opinion, any video that features Monica is a good one.

Ain’t lying. Literally sat on the toilet and started watching.

How dare you assume I watch your videos on the toilet. I’m appalled.

I love this channel because no matter how fed up I am with my day, you're just 3 more sub-basement levels of "over it" than I can ever be. Also I learn things from time to time so that's fun I guess.

Very happy to see Slim Aarons getting some more recognition. Has been my favorite photographer since I was a kid. Sweet video as always.

This is "Americana" I like your sense of humor and your photography. Watching you from Llança, about 160 kilometers north of Barcelona, near French border. Some day I'll make a trip in the USA , very close with what you did in Palm Springs. I did something similar in the nineties over the East cost. Best wishes.Luis .

Babe wake up Jason posted a new video! 😍

Michigander here. My very first roll of color film I ever shot was in Palm Springs when I was visiting a friend a few years ago. Ironically, that’s also when I first discovered your YT channel and work. Got a chance to spend last summer in Palm Springs again, shot soooooo much film while there. Shoutout to the Camera West store in Rancho Mirage for being my film “supplier” while I was in town. Such a fun summer.

god damn that "lube bay" counter shot had me rolling

In the 80s I shot (exposed) a lot of Kodachrome 64 in the Philippines. The green foliage, blue skies and depending on the angle the various blue colors of the ocean were spectacular despite my limited abilities. Also shot a lot of Fuji color 1600 scuba diving. However, between the high grain of the film and the water filtering out sunlight most of those photos were bland. Started shooting film again about a decade ago. Went looking for Kodachrome 64 (talk about being out of touch). All I could find was the old Paul Simon song.

Tomorrow may be Good Friday, but this is Great Thursday because a new Grainydays video is out

Two issues with Kodachrome. It’s not made anymore and you can’t develop it. Other than that, it’s a great film.

grainydays x palm springs two of my favorite things

your shots make me want to drink the Palm Springs pool

Awesome seeing you drive through the same parts of freeway and streets I know really well 😀 I love Palm Springs and live nearby

Hooray, Monica & Baxter! The E100 looks really good with your filter.

love the epic conversation with Monica shot and the toilets looks desent.

for a long time i've tried to deny how much i love california, but your photography- the warm tones and overall romantic shots, make it actually impossible to keep up that front :')

057-1.02: A very cool vedub with roof rack.

I just love you guys

Pete brought me here and im so glad he did ... I love it here .. your personality your style your photography everything is absolutely amazing ❤️

I can 100% confirm that the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway is totally awesome. You're so high up, with an awesome view of the desert below.

Great stuff, Jason.

love this

Haha wonderful stuff, and great pics! 👍

Love that Minolta. Picked one up for $5.00 from goodwill online. Lovely photos as always.

My brother is the one that wrote that Kodachrome article you showed :)

Kodachrome rocked. I gave up 35mm photography when Dwayne’s quit developing it. No point. You’re all wasting your time. I even shot it in 120 on my Mamiya 7.

Sick lens, sick vibes, sick boy.

Not too many people are shooting Portra 400, maybe you could give Monica a roll of that and see if she can introduce people to the film stock. Bue seriously, lomo turquoise.

Shits banging. I think this video is one I have re-watched the most in the smallest amount of time. The music, story telling, and visuals just keep me on a loop

Dude was waiting to see when you were gonna make it to my hood! It had Jason written all over! Rad to see you caught the scene. Wish to have cross paths

Dude...those first shots were insane. Excellent video.

Gotta show off the Diamond Dynasty team one of these days! Love your work, it's been a big inspiration as I get started with film photography

Wow those opening images.

Interesting video, great photos 👍👍

That N2 Deep reference was the hidden gem in this video. I’m amazed anyone else other than me knew that song.

So jealous you got that close to a Le Labo. Nice shots, too!

Love your videos! Can you add aperture setting details (SP, ISO, Aperture m) to your images in the videos? I also have the Konica Hexon 21-35 lens (may have purchased it after seeing your M6 lol) and want to get better with exposure and sharpness on such a unique but slower lens. Also curious on how to push my M8.2 more which mirrors film low light limitations to get the looks that I want. Cheers!

How did you know that I am watching your videos while sitting on a toilet?! A true magician

I am actually laughing so loud! I SWEAR to you as you said 'slammed your bare ass on to [a toilet]' I actually did at that EXACT moment. I can't believe how incredibly well timed that was.

I've finally taken the time to watch this video, and I feel incredibly called out because I am indeed sitting on the toilet right now...

A Palm Springs Jason vid?! BEEETTTTTTT

first time seeing you not alone on a trip lol

I thought I was original when I bought an imagetech 3d camera for six bucks, and then I found out you already made a video on it!

If monica likes contrasty scenes then definitely black and white film next. Maybe PanF or just starting off on Kentmere.

Bro was in my hell hole of a backyard. Interesting seeing an outsiders perspective on where I live.

edging over here to see your shots, dude

Kodakchrome has(had) much more dynamic range, especially the 25, than ektrachromes ~5ish. So you must shoot it using zone exposure as first, well the bland desert setting helps(also the dominant yellow) if you don't look into bushes. You push more shadows you tamper brights and vice versa, thus why the skin tones suffer often, keeping aside the fact it natively likes to color shift if exposed wrong.

magnificent.

I reckon Monica deserves a nice roll of Ektar 100 next!

Dope hotel, breh. I still have a roll of Ektrachrome I bought two years ago in the fridge. I am just waiting on the wrong time to bust it out. Looks like a fun place.

I'm old. I shot Kodachrome because my dad shot Kodachrome. I also shot Ektachrome .... No, I don't feel special. Just old. You always have a video that is fun to watch. Just all laid backsort of. Good thing Monica can help keep you on track.

Nice photos. Now I see why your are championing to bring back Aerochrome.

I’d love to know which ISO range you use the most - seems like a lot of your best work is fairly closed down. The framing and deep focus is such a vibe with those sharp lenses on the M6. Bravo.

I think Monica is the Real photographer. You are a great narrator!!😊

For some scenens, maybe a PL-filter on top of the warming filter to get one step closer to the good ol’ Koda?

"chicken fajita" made me flinch

Nice fotos this time. Keep going 😊

Sickkkk

Nice song choice at 14:37 bro. Moody blues 👍🏿

Monica needs some lomo purple in her life. Or redscale.

Mr. Peanut has a cane though... Do you get a weapon ???

The video title is so promising …. I had to check it out 😂

I guess these shots are, ... ok. 🤩

pool shot looks bomb! Maybe give monica a black and white film?!

dayum son super fresh pics

Cool project. PS- you can never have too many Margaritas

i love this video, as i do every video you make, but i especially loved when you talked about slim, would be cool to have a more in depth video about photographers you look to for inspiration/enjoyment

*Watches this video tearfully looking at my last roll of Ektachrome that I haven't been able to develop yet because developing 120 E-6 is hella expensive and I don't get paid until next week*

I will definitely be ripping off your Ektachrome hack. It’s a cool vibe.

Cinestill offers a special E6 developing kit that actually gets the look pretty close to the Kodachrome look with Ektachrome.

N2 Deep?? Park the ride in the front like a slick one, just in case, we got a bust a quick one? 😂

I love how KZfaq doesnt show me your new videos..They play once i see another video in the background while editing..Then boom..A sarcasm voice comes on lol..Dont mind it lol..Keep it up bro..

1:19 you read my mind

I'm really surprised that you haven't shot a single roll of B&W Infrared à la Julius Shulman. He was the one who made all those iconic photos of the Case Study houses in Palm Springs and Desert Hot Springs after all.

Great pics though man

Any place is better for pictures than Florida. I guess.

Lube Bay. Tight.

I think Monica should try Lomo Purple next time.

Never felt more known then at 1:22 😳

😍😍😍

Mama took my Kodachrome away!

Oddly, I have watched a video or two of yours sitting on the throne.

I think Ektar at 50 might be more Kodachrome than E100. Those reds really make the look.

Monica should have her own YT channel dedicated to putting up with your shit ;)

Not me watching this on the toilet 👀

DUNE 2!

Mrs. Fergus watching this: D:

i think your kodachrome substitute is a lot flatter than the real thing, kodachrome usually has little to nothing in the shadows, but the colours are really close!!

Mr. Peanut IS the correct answer.

Yellow M&M can get the handsssssssssssssssss
