February
February is always a particular month, traditionally slow, not a lot of professional work in film. Most people are still trying to figure out what to do in this upcoming year that unveils. Funny enough, February at the lab is often used to plan things, start the training for new interns and focus on self-improvement.
These last two years have been strange as hell. Still, it’s hard to believe that in February 2020, we were celebrating Carmencita Lisboa Opening Party. It was also in February 2021 that we opened the doors of Carmencita Barcelona for the first time. Let’s see if in February 2022 we can top that 🙂
The images that caught our eye the most we can see and understand why we always feel drawn to film, the expressions and the photographer’s interaction with the subject feel so transparent that it’s almost as if we could hear, smell or sense the textures of those images.
From Republica Dominicana to Dubai, we get film from (almost) every corner of the world. This selection of images helps us spread the word of all these photographers who share our same passion, decide there is no better place to develop & scan their film than our lab, and, most importantly, that we can’t take this for granted.
We say this often, but we honestly believe this is the most exciting time for film photography in the XXI century!
I hope you enjoy it!
