y'all know i work weddings. i work a lot of weddings. most of them are pretty boring, to be honest. but the one i worked on saturday...
well, it had me drooling.
the bride had provided really awesome vintage cameras, as well as an old typewriter.
the wedding planner couldn't figure out how to make the typewriter work for the life of them, even though the bride expected the typewriter to be an integral part of her guest list.
i went and fiddled, because i was evidently the only person at the entire wedding (including the bride...) who knew typewriters. the only problem was that the ribbon was dry, so i just rewound the ribbon the other way, and got the typing to show up a little better. it wasn't perfect, but it was a quick fix.
even though i have my own typewriter, i'm still lusting after a few more to add to my collection.
i love the shit out of my typewriter.
i love old cameras. i would kill for these cameras! if i were a meaner person, i would have slowly absconded with all of them - even the ones that didn't work. : ]
well, who knows if any of them work. they all looked a bit worse for wear.
still, how gorgeous is that???
still, my camera lust is somewhat placated by my own film camera. i love it dearly. even though it's "outdated" and i can't get any more professional photography gigs with film, i still love it.
although i could really stand to get a good DSLR...
i wish! anyone got $1500 to spare??? : /
i recently took this camera to Jazzland, and had a ball. i can't wait to see what i find, when i develop the film.
