Second analog shoot with Esther in Amsterdam

It’s been a while since I wrote something about a shoot, besides just posting the photos. But as part of my “experiments with film” – I figured I should. If only so I can remember what I did when I’m shooting next. But also because I do enjoy reading other people’s write-ups about their experiences with film and scanning. And perhaps sharing the details of how I go about scanning my negatives helps others (details at the bottom of this page).
