A more natural me



Today's blog is about my love for polaroid photos and old film cameras, from looking at other photographers work, they seem to give a  feel to the image which has more feeling and personality. However I cant afford film cameras or anything of the sort, I only have the camera I have at the moment is because I'm lending it off my ex boyfriend! I began to look for alternatives, downloading software which turned my picture into a 'polaroid', which of course it didn't, it looked horrendous!I nearly gave up until a good friend of mine Andy helped me out and showed me how to get the affect i wanted. There not perfect yet, but since it was my first go i am very happy with the result! 
The pictures are a bonus as i can use them for my portfolio, which is good because they show my natural side, im usually very picky with photos showing my brace or which arnt edited of my face, but i think its time to accept who i am, instead of only liking images of my self which are so edited they don't look like me anymore! Also would love to do a few photos for my LOOKBOOK with the same effect.
