{ caught on film: photographer, bonnie tsang }

I happened upon photographer, Bonnie Tsang's site last night thanks to a tip from ink & button and was instantly captivated. Her wedding photography showcases her amazing talent and knack for capturing all that is beautiful. Every bit of her blog is pure eye candy. Even these "experimental" photos--shot recently in NYC using film with her toy Golden Half camera--are stunning.

I've often thought about why I have such a love affair with photography and taking photos. I think Bonnie articulates it perfectly when she says, "To me, photography is always about documenting the reality - from what I see to the state of mind I have at the moment". So well said. This weekend, treat yourself to a visit to Bonnie's blog. Happy, happy Friday everyone!

These gorgeous photos were taken by Summer Allen-Gibson whom you might know from Design-is-Mine, her inspiring design blog. I'm in awe of her talent and love the richness of color and texture found in her photos, which by the way, were all taken using film. She's made me realize that I need to give up my wimpy, conservative ways when shooting film and just go for it. I hope we continue to see more photo loveliness from Summer (wouldn't it be great if she started making her prints available for purchase--hint, hint!).
