Film, Coffee, and Golden Hour | Shooting Kodak Portra 160 on 35mm

Join me for a day of film photography with Kodak Portra 160 — starting with coffee and quiet moments at Taylor Books in Charleston, WV, then capturing the beauty of Capitol Street during golden hour. I’ll take you on a nostalgic road trip to McAlister Photoworks in Columbus, Ohio, one of the few labs that still offer same-day film developing and return your negatives.

Shot entirely on a vintage Minolta SRT MC II with a 50mm Rokkor lens, this video dives into the magic of Portra 160: its warm colors, soft tones, and timeless look. If you love film photography, Kodak Portra 160, 35mm cameras, road trips, or just slowing down to appreciate life's small details, this is for you.
