shoot first, edit later


I had this ridiculous mini debate in my head before taking this photograph. Was it a shot? Was I wasting film by shooting it? I endeavor to quiet those thoughts while shooting and rely on my instincts. Shoot first, edit later. Something was telling me to photograph this moment and I'm glad I listened.

Nice picture ;) totally agree with you, while shooting film, I always have this kinda debate as well (unlike shooting digital, I just shoot first, edit later)...next time, I should do the same when shooting film ;)

It's gorgeous Liz, so atmospheric. Film is so much nicer than digital, so much more depth to it. Thanks for sharing it!
