Since having my dslr camera and gear stolen about a month ago, I've been forced to shoot strictly film. That hasn't stop me from making the most of the circumstances and came up with this idea.

I decided to meet up with a friend a couple weeks back to shoot his 66' Volkswagen Beetle with my 1940's Argus C3 film camera.

My intentions were to not only showcase the car, but more importantly place it in a setting that would take you back in time and really put the car in the past, as if you were looking through your parents photo book and saw these from when they were young.

I hope you all can really appreciate this shoot and my vision. Some may not fully understand my intentions and will just see things for what they are - low quality photos with a beat up beetle. That's okay, this isn't for everyone, but as a photographer I got the exact results I was going for, and couldn't be happier.

**These photos are straight from the camera and were not edited junky filters and what have you...

thanks guys.

The camera for those who are curious (The exact model seen in the Harry Potter movies)

awesome photos!

 

Great shots. I gotta get me an old film camera, love the way it looks. Sucks about your gear though man. I can't imagine that happening to me, I'd be devastated

 

These photos look amazing. I haven't seen photos like this for a long time now.

 

The photos look fantastic!

How did you transfer the 35mm film to a digital format?

 

thank you both very much. I plan on shooting more cool classic cars in this format hopefully

Thanks matt! I ask to have them put on a cd when I send them off to get developed. Super easy and convenient

 

I was just curious, because there's stuff like this out there to help with that.
