Who Says Film Is Dead?

You may find it hard to find that roll of color film. You may even find it even more difficult to find color sheet film. But Black & White film. . . now that is another story. Large Format and Ultra Large Format cameras and film are more popular among photographic artists than ever. Don’t believe it? Try an Internet search and see what you come up with.

Here is an article done by our local newspaper back in 2006 that says a lot about film photography.

“As the industry shifts away from film cameras, some photographers stick with tradition“

We support film and film photography and applaud those that choose this artistic medium for their personal expression. To learn more, visit our web site.

Hello & Welcome to the jbhphoto Blog

J.B. and Susan Harlin comprise what could be considered members of a small, but growing, group of photographic artists that take the simple, basic approach very seriously. They use only time-honored tools and techniques for making their fine art black & white photographs. Their emphasis is upon making the photograph—not on the equipment, gadgets, or fads. J.B. says, “I feel that using the correct tool for the job is the most important decision you can make.”

This is exactly what they do. From the original conception of the image, to the finished framed fine art photograph, the emphasis is on quality—not quantity. Susan says, “I may spend a lot of time in the field and usually make relatively few negatives—but the ones I do make are well worth the effort.”
