New Release! Something a little different on the channel today...

One year ago I visited San Francisco for the very first time. I spent the day thrifting and exploring the city, and captured it all on 35mm film. No digital previews, no retakes, just the experience as it happened.

I'm still a film noob but I just love the whole analogue experience.

Side note, I've been working on 2 new sewing patterns with full video tutorials but they're taking MUCH longer than expected. So while we wait for those, I hope you can enjoy this in the meantime 🙂

What I love about shooting photos on 35mm film is the intentionality behind it. Shots are finite, and there's no undo button. You aren't pulling it out to ca...

It’s 2016, I just graduated business school and that last semester was mad fun. I booked a backpacking trip to Asia with a group of friends, had more fun. Came back for convocation and more travel, road trips here and there. Fun fun fun fun…

Then it was all done, and I realized “aw s**t, I still need to lock in a job”. All that fun in school caught up with me and I’m now I’m scrambling. Relative to my peers, I got nothing. They’re working abroad or living downtown working in sky rises, I’m at home in the suburbs working at the mall.

For months, I send out 100s of resumes to jobs I don’t even care about, I just want something at this point. Something to justify my business degree + 4 years of tuition. I get a couple interviews, but I suck at them. Not enough practice, no interest and no confidence. Desperate times call for desperate measures, chop the flow lol.

But then at the end of the year, I get a job offer. Fr, the only part I remember from that interview process was the last question. The interviewer asks “so what’re your other interests?” and I say “I like travelling, cooking, basketball… and sewing”.
