I'm out in Tunbridge Wells, my local town, photographing some portraits of people that I've met on the street. I find that you just have to get in there and straight to the point and luckily on this occasion, most of them said yes.
Thank you to everyone that took part.

Seeing as my first three comments mention one particular image at 0:58 , yes, that is Peter Capaldi. The image was taken back in 2014 and was added to my #portrait365 project. I was walking around Soho and he was just on the street so I had to ask. He was very obliging and happy to give me 30 seconds of his time ;-)

You mentioned your 365 project once before, now I'm half way through mine I seeing yours was inspiring. "What camera is that?" "A Mamiya 7ii" "Is it film? Wow!!" It was the 'Wow' that made me feel terribly old. Brilliant that you met a young analogue photographer, they are always so interested and enthusiastic. I think film definitely has a future, and Fujifilm must be thinking the same bringing back Acros. A great video Craig, I’m neither a street photographer or person photographer but I got heck of a lot out of this video. Thank you very much.

Yes, there seems to be a real resurgence in film. As long as there’s enough younger photographers choosing to use it, film manufacturers will continue to make it. Film and digital have good and bad points but I know which one I prefer.

I admire your ability to do this kind of photography. You clearly have a way of connecting with people, disarming the natural hesitancy and suspicion that most of us have when our image is taken.

@CraigPrentisPhoto 5 жыл бұрын

I’m not sure I agree but colour correction is very subjective. Portra is known for its warm subtle tones and putting the images next to punchy GoPro footage is always going to emphasise the differences. Film processing, scanning technique and colour correction are all going to be contributing factors as to how it looks and I’m sure these images could be tweaked more to your liking. I’ll take another look in the morning. Sometimes you can look at an image on a screen for so long that you don’t actually see a problem. Thanks for your comments.

Craig Prentis not necessarily a bad thing, just wondering if it was how it came out or if there were other things at play. I’ve been having some trouble keeping things consistent and wondered if this was a factor at play here. In complete agreement though that colours in person vary a lot to on screen which again can vary with any number of subtle changes in scanning or development.

I've had another look at the images this morning and made a few adjustments. When putting together the video, I didn't reference the Go Pro footage as a colour benchmark, I just corrected them to my tastes.
