This was one of the last shoots I did in 2018 before stopping portraiture and photography. I wrote to a friend this week that I had plateaued in 2018 and lost the gumption to keep going with portraiture. I found these scans in my dropbox still tucked in The Darkroom Lab's zip files. I can't remember which rolls these are, probably Porta 160. I used to love low-grain slow speed film. I think I still do.

I had probably looked at these photos once or twice in 2018 and thought they were repeating the work that I had been doing, more evidence of my plateaued art. Today these two photos jumped out among the three rolls of 120 film. Maybe it is the 5 year hiatus that renewed my eyes to see, instead of glazing over. I can't even remember how I used to edit portraits, though I remember I had an intricate system in either Lightroom or Photoshop. I fired up "Preview" app on the Mac and played with the rudimentary "Adjust Color" feature to produce these two photos.

I have picked up the camera again, only to see where it takes me, if it will let be climb back on board once again.

 Insley Smullen is a poet and photographer residing in San Francisco, California. 

Possessed of an intense interest in nature and storytelling since childhood, Insley’s work focuses on the natural world and the interactions between the humans and animals within it. Shooting primarily with a Mamiya C220 and black and white film, Insley aims to explore and thoughtfully play with the tension between natural spectrums: life and death, growth and decay, animal and man, with a focus on the vulnerability that connects us all.
