i really love trying to pull myself out of my comfort zones. and working with the slightly unpredictable nature of a polaroid camera that chooses exposures for me is almost certainly uncomfortable. my camera is almost always in manual mode. i tend to have a sort of a 6th sense about exposure and reading the light. and not knowing exactly what a camera is giving me requires a fair amount of trust in the equipment. but the truth is that the look that comes out of a Polaroid camera is in a large part determined by the electronics and metering designed into the cameras back in the 50s and 60s.
so i put brooke in front of the windows and let the electric eye do its thing.
