Embracing our differences: Shot on film. I enjoy shooting contemporary photos on film because it tends to give more of a timeless feel to them. I decided to do this because I really liked the background that I had at my disposal inside my living room mirror. Glancing into a different plane. I wanted this to give almost an ambiguous feeling towards it. The main reason I enjoy shooting film is because of the characteristics of it. As much as film is becoming less and less used, I still hold the belief that the medium is still alive.
