Roadtrippin 2024 [Ilford HP5 400]

In 2024, we sold our place in Seattle. It was a hard decision, but we knew it was time to go. Before heading to our new place in Portland, we decided to roadtrip down to Texas to see family and spend a few weeks in Austin – a place that’s always felt like home to us.

These are a random selection of shots from San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Southern California, Arizona, Marfa, and Austin – all shot with Tristine’s hand-me-down Ricoh KR-5 Super.

Some of these are out of focus and a bit blown out. This was probably the point I committed to shooting a lot of film. And since all metering is manual and off camera, there was a lot of trial and error.
