film vs. digital

are you still using film or have you switched to digital?
last week i attended my first wipa event and after an amazing talk by sean low, we met up in groups by profession. i had the honor of meeting some fantastic local photographers and we spoke about the film vs. digital debate.  everyone has his/her own opinion on which medium is superior yet i feel that there are advantages to both.  so, i shoot with both.  unfortunately, my shoulders get hit the hardest because at each wedding i am carrying around a ton of gear.
i have to say that the immediate feedback of a digital camera is convenient yet there is something so satisfying about getting a roll of film back after it has been processed.  the debate continues!

greta & jeff

one of the best ways to improve as a photographer is to practice.  practice. practice. practice. this is why i absolutely love working as a second photographer.  every photographer has his/her own working style and it is fun to work with different people.  so when my friend and fellow photographer, lili durkin, asked if i was available to help her out, i immediately said 'yes'.
greta and jeff got married at nestldown which is a stunning venue in the santa cruz mountains.
