One last time at Lloyd Center

I'm visiting PDX for PolaCon just as Lloyd Center is winding down for its permanent closure. I was surprised by how many other people turned out to say goodbye; it's been a very sleepy mall every other time I've visited. Took these shots in B&W i-type and color frame i-type film with a 2nd gen Now+ camera on 08/07/26 to commemorate the occasion.

The nostalgia was heavy in the air. Being there for the last time kind of made me feel like crying.

Mallcore Aesthetic

Malls have become some of my favorite places to take Polaroids. These were taken between The Outlet Collection, The Commons, and Alderwood Mall using expired i-type film (circa 2020) and fresh color frame i-type film. The expired film was shot with a 2nd gen Now+, and the color frame was shot with an I-2.

Summertime in Ballard

Just had my SX-70 refurbished and modified (by Retrospekt) to shoot 600 film. I used it to take all these photos in my neighborhood over the last week.

Experimenting with colors

I've been experimenting with colored gel filters (from Retrospekt). These photos were shot with royal blue + teal filters combined in a color frame pack on a brilliantly sunny day, with the light meter cranked all the way up on my I-2. I love how moody they feel!
