ahh, the honeymoon… or rather, minimoon, as it was only for a couple of days… but we had a blast! if you saw my last entry, you’ll have seen our fabulous wedding blog post by jagger photography. but don’t worry, i’ll post some of our faves on here too! :) i took pictures with instagram (you can follow me @flurrsprite) during the ‘moon, but here are some film and dslr pics for you to enjoy!

we started our trip to kauai off right… after arriving, we headed straight to a waterfall!

the next day we jumped on a cruise and took a tour of the legendary na pali coast. it was pretty spectacular.

i’m on a boat!

our captain played the titanic song and told couples to take pictures bahaha.

spinner dolphins! they played around our ship… so happy!

one of the deckhands was pretty hilarious… self-portrait above.

the next day we ran out to waimea canyon and then up to the north shore. such beautiful sights!

hawaii’s grand canyon!

i loved the island’s wild chick-chickeeeeeeens! run, my colorful chickies, run!

mat tried to take a nap on the beach… he wasn’t keen on me sneaking up and shooting photos of him, hehe ;)

my pictures are back from richard photo lab, huzzah! it can’t be helped, i just love rpl. and i love my yashica! i’m so glad the pictures turned out (ahem, i can now leave feedback on ebay for the cam…) and they are nice and sharp… and square! well, for the most part… looks like the ratio is a lil bit off, not sure if that means it’s a little wider than it’s supposed to be, or if it’s actually shorter… oh well! also, the crank is cranky (har) and does not like turning all of the time, which means unless i can get it fixed, i won’t be able to use it for anything fast-paced (not that it’s really designed to be, i feel like). no worries, i will just focus on using it to take pretty pretty portraits and detail shots :)

here are some of my faves from the 220 portra 400 roll that i tested at mat and sandeep’s surprise birthday party:

some accidental double exposing (cranky crank), but looks neat to me! sandeep’s girlfriend josie rented a tmnt moon bounce, whoooo!

love gabe’s jump here! haha.

what do you all think? sharper shots than my 35mm?

alright, on to some fun mini di pics!

i experimented a lot more with double exposures for this go-round, and mat also ran around while we were at the huntington gardens with our mini di. some of the double exposures were… well, way too exposed hahaha but i just think the results are always surprising and that is what i love about this camera.

enjoy!

san francisco! always fun.

out at huntington during our last stint in the japanese gardens for a while!

these next few shots are courtesy of mat :)

i love red japanese maple trees:

whoo, crazy bonsai tree!

okay, this one is definitely wonky (and i have no idea what the second image is!) but i like that you can just see diamond head in the center:

and i leave you with this… bwahaha!
