Chloe in an Instant

This will be the first in a couple of posts from this shoot, split between analogue instant photography and digital.

This first lot, of the amazing Chloe Bella Armstrong, were all shot using instant photography, whether Polaroid (mostly) or Instax (one of them) and i love the look and feel of them.

The polaroids, shot on Impossible Project - Now Polaroid Original, used Colour 600 film using a Polaroid Onestep Flash that i purchased over 20 years ago. i love the look and feel of these, the skin tones are outstanding and they have a real etherial feel, plus theres that hint of light leak and imperfection that i love from Polaroid, i just wish it was a little cheaper.

The instax, done only as John felt guilty at getting the book in the way of the lens when trying to catch the polaroid in the book to keep it as dark as possible, is the Square format and shot on a Lomo Instant Square Pigalle, and i like the clean look to them but they tend to lack a little something, maybe too clean, plus are a little too yellow on the skin tones.

These were all flatbed scanned on an Epson Perfection V330 and have only had a quick dust/scratch removal applied.

Have a look and let me know what you think (the last shot is the Instax).
