    My First Roll: Jenny Penas

    My First Roll is a series for film photographers to share the images from their first roll of film.  Everyone starts shooting at a different time and for different reasons.  Some shooters may have started shooting yesterday while others have started shooting decades ago.  This series provides a glimpse into the humble beginnings of individual photographers, encouraging us to reflect on our earlier work to find beauty and appreciation in our inexperience and to understand how we got to where we our now and where we want to go in our photographic journey.  If you would like to share images from your first roll of film, send me an email.

    Jenny Penas from Berlin, Germany shares her first roll of film taken on her Olympus XA2 on Ilford Delta 400 in March 2016.  While these images are not exactly her first film shots ever, they are her first film shots after a long hiatus from her film experiences of the late 1990’s.

    Shutter Sounds 007

    Shutter Sounds is a monthly, ten-song music playlist based upon my most-played music of the previous month.  These monthly compilations are not limited or constrained to any theme or genre.  They are simply a selection of songs that I chose from my most played artists of the month for the readers to enjoy while shooting, spending time in the darkroom, or want to listen to something new.

    Now Available: Now Developing Sticker Set

    I have been meaning to get some sort of merchandise made while I start to plan my newest photo book which should see completion some time this fall, so I went out and got some stickers made.   And after a few weeks of designing a few I was happy with and waiting for printing, they are finally here!

    There are three unique designs in a 4.25″ x 2.75″ format that can be obtained in a set simply by clicking here.

    I would love to see where you decide to stick them, so if they happen to fall somewhere on your social media accounts, simply hashtag #nowdeveloping and/or mention @now.developing on Instagram.

    As always, thank you for your support!
