Today, we’re featuring a wonderful bright and sunny travel story from film photographer Amy Boyd. Here is more from Amy about capturing the stunning beaches of Cabo San Lucas on film…
My favorite color is “the ocean on Ektar 100.” There is just something magical about how Ektar can capture the way the ocean looks and feels on a bright, sunny day. When my family traveled to Cabo San Lucas in May, I knew we would be spending most of our time on the water, so I wanted to spend some extra time documenting those bright vivid colors, along with our family adventures. I brought along my Nikonos III, which is a temperamental little camera at times, but such a treat for capturing memories like snorkeling, paddle boarding, and jumping off boats!
Analog cameras and films used: Nikonos III (Find at KEH Camera or on eBay), Canon 1V (Find at KEH Camera or on eBay), Pentax 645N (Find at KEH Camera or on eBay), Yashica Mat 124G (Find at KEH Camera or on eBay) | Kodak Portra 800 (Find on Amazon), Kodak Ektar 100 (Find on Amazon)
