1_Dior-Johansen_80s-Beauty by Dave Blake_35mm-Kodak-Ektachrome-E100-cross-processed.jpg — 80s beauté on film

I read a lot of European magazines from the 70s and 80s - and truly admire the look and feel of the pictures. I set about trying to understand how the original master photographers like Hans Feurer and Harry Peccinotti might have worked with film and processing. These were shot with the new 35mm Kodak Ektachrome E100 (and cross processed) on a Nikon F100 with Nikon 70-200 2.8 @ f4. Anyhow, I like them, and if you’re a photographer interested in shooting on slide film, this might be interesting for you to see.

Beauty. Raw, sensual and organic in it’s original form, evolving into a kaleidoscope of colour as it’s alluring chameleon like qualities draw us in to create and build upon the canvas with which we have been gifted. Will our chosen palette become a part of our truest self or will it simply become a mask that we carefully place over that which was once pure… Photographs: Dave Blake, Muse: Beth Hurrell (Que Models), Hair Makeup: Valentina Pintus, Post: Rhiannon Jansma, Words: Jenni Sellan.
