Instant Kelsey and Ayn
Saturday, May 19th, 2018
I realized that one reason I’ve not been posting much is that the next shoot in line to be edited and posted here is a shoot I did with instant film. The prints are scanned, but they need a lot of time-consuming editing. And I just haven’t had the time to do that. So, to […]
Point Lobos
Wednesday, May 16th, 2018
During my recent travels I was able to spend a little time at Point Lobos on the California coast. It’s an amazingly beautiful place. It was easy to see why Edward Weston loved it so much. These are a few of the snaps I took while I was there. Of course I shot these with […]
Pinhole Day 2018
Tuesday, May 15th, 2018
I’ve been traveling a lot recently. That’s one of the many reasons that I haven’t been posting here. I hope to be able to get back to regular posts now. We’ll see. I was traveling on Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day this year, but managed to take a few pinhole photos along Rt. 50 in Kansas […]
Brigman/White Project
Friday, April 13th, 2018
I’ve been working on a new project. It’s based on the work of two of my favorite photographers from many years ago. A century ago in fact. If you aren’t familiar with Anne Brigman and Clarence White I suggest you spend a little time changing that. They were two very important people in the early […]
Still not back to normal
Thursday, April 12th, 2018
Hello friends. Sorry I’m not posting these days but I’m still trying to recover from the site being hacked. It seems to be back to normal, but there are still some things to be done. But, I thought I’d go ahead and make a quick post to remind both of my readers that I’m still […]
Misc. Gina
Thursday, January 25th, 2018
Finally how about an assortment of photos of the amazing Gina? As we wandered through Mike Elsass’ space we played with one of the paintings there as a background. Then some more photos taking advantage of the bright, sunny day. Back in the studio Gina wanted to play around with some unusual makeup. And, […]
Wandering Around With Gina
Monday, January 22nd, 2018
After shooting in the studio for a while, Gina and I went wandering around the Front Street Buildings, always a rich environment for photo backgrounds. The sunny day provided some opportunities to play with light and shadow…not to mention color. Mike Elsass’s studio on the floor above my studio has lots of interesting things to […]
Fun With Gina
Thursday, January 18th, 2018
Every once in a while I get together with my old friend Gina and then something good always happens. We did these photos a while back. I’m so slow with my editing that I’m just getting to them. Give Gina a prop and she’ll make something happen with it, as you can see in these shots from […]
Instant Theda From the Past
Friday, January 5th, 2018
I guess I’m a little late getting started on the new year on the blog. I’m posting a lot on MeWe, so you might want to look over there for more frequent photos. mewe.com/i/dave.levingston But, I made a discovery a few days ago. I had scanned a bunch of instant prints and then mis-filed them and […]
