Yeah, those shots that have 8 frames are taken with a camera called an Oktomat. It has 8 lenses and shutters and takes the frames over the space of 2.5 seconds. Its so much fun. The other shots are with a Holga camera which takes medium format film, some of them i just used 35mm film in it for, to see what happens. Its fun to just try things out, sometimes the mistakes are more exciting than expected results. The Holga has a flash up the top, with a dial, and you can spin the dial and choose either Clear, Yellow, Red or Blue for your flash...fun! They are all plastic body and plastic lens cameras. And neither camera have a viewfinder that shows exactly what the lens will shoot, so its all guess work and surprises.

Oh wicked, that first one looks like a kids toy camera. The Holga is a cool camera, our friend that did our wedding shots used a Holga for some of the shots. Get some really rich bright colours with the camera. But again,, love ya work miss - so pretty.

I don't think I posted on here that Jessy got me a supersampler for my birthday in november...that divides the frame in to four long shots - really fun and awesome vignettes - i adore it. www.lomography.com/supersampler/and for her birthday (Jan 25th) I got her a Diana F+ 'Hong Meow' edition that has panda's on it - hehe. Its a medium format camera that takes 120 film, we are loading the first roll tonight. www.lomography.com/diana/products/hongmeow
