I’m just getting about 13 rolls back from a trip I recently took. Expect some photo spam for a while.

Starting with this one! I stopped into Portland on my trip and immediately fell in love. Coolest city in the US I’ve ever been to.

Apparently it was prom night and young awkward high school students were out in full force. Most of them went in groups to different restaurants downtown… except for these two. These two were in front of a fancy, expensive restaurant full of older people. She couldn’t stop smiling and he couldn’t stop anxiously looking around, but they never said a word to each other while I was standing there.

I love it so much. The awkwardness of early high school dating. The oversized suit and pink dress. The nerves and hesitation.

He looked up and saw me pointing my camera at him. I took the shot just as he tried to hide himself behind his hand.

Side note - I took this on Kodak Vericolor III that expired in 1998. Pretty pleased with the results.
