  • Still going strong in the year of black-and-white. Chicago was chef's kiss in monochrome. Enjoy! 🍿 For those curious, I shot on Streetpan 400, Cinestill XX, and HP5.

    That overexposed roll looks like a "fat roll" where the backing paper isn't tight enough around the film. Great photos!

    It’s unfortunate that most people who visit Chicago never venture past downtown. There are so many awesome neighborhoods to do photography in here. Hopefully you’ll have the opportunity to visit again and make it out into some of the neighborhoods. Little India on Devon, Chinatown, Pilsen, Little Village, and Hyde Park, and Bronzeville just to name a few.

And that's when I decided and then embraced a full time career as a photojournalist. Thank you for these views which reminded me of these excellent memories and I loved seeing you appreciate this city and its atmosphere. Warm greetings from Switzerland ! Jean-Luc

    this is so incredible. i am seeking this style of vlog and i am so happy that you guys are still making these things. when you still were active at moment i was always super hyped to see new videos. not because of the products as they didnt interest me, but because of your (you and the other folks) video, phototgraphy and editing skills. just absolutely amazing to see. have you planned the shots or have you just filmed them casually?

      MAJOR SUGGESTION: take the tour at sunset. That puts you on the water at night. That is so special.

Maybe I'm missing something but that seems like a slap in Darkroom's face. Not trying to throw shade but I'm just confused what the Darkroom gets out of organizing these events.
