I’m always apprehensive when the film from my travel (yes film, not digital!) arrives from being processed. Will they come out? Will they be in focus? Will it be the right thing or not…?
On this trip I also photographed a beautiful job (not one of mine, but a home that I had seen) in Bali for publication.
So I usually sit there with the light box, kind of apprehensive, before opening the film box. I’m always surprised, not always pleasently, but seeing the images of the experiences that I lived in my travels come alive again is wonderful, regardless.
With the written text, this trip to Mali will hopefully end up as a chapter in a future book. I’ll share some of the travel notes with you in the upcoming days to give you a taste of this fascinating place.

I HAVE SEEN THOSE PICS FROM THE HOME IN SUMBAWA, BALI. THE HOME IS A DELIGHT AND SO FRESH LOOKING AND LIVEABLE. A PERFECT HOME AWAY FROM EVERYTHING. YOUR PICS MADE IT EVEN MORE ENTICING AND MAGICAL. “A BUENA HORA, SEñOR WOLF”

I love that you use film. Interesting, because it was your photography that first drew me to your work. I still go back to my slr camera once in awhile.

Melissa – I’m not computer savvy so I use film. That said, I always travel with my Leica digital for quick snaps, which I can recommend. However, for when I do my ‘real’ shoots, I use film I use a Pentax Medium Format, which I prefer because it gives you a larger negative. My Pentax and I have traveled the globe together.
