Scans from a film roll I found in a box

In early spring, I found a couple of rolls of film in a box while searching for an extra phone charger for a guest. These pictures were taken on a Holga 135BC loaded with what I believe was Kodak Porta 400. The pictures were taken between 2014 - 2016.

Out of 72 exposures, the few above were the only ones that were somewhat salvageable. The film was expired and had been knocking around in a box for the better part of a decade so I wasn’t too broken up about the lack of keepers. Frankly, I was surprised they were even able to process what was taken.

It was nice revisiting these moments. The first picture was from my old apartment. It was my first and only solo apartment. At the time it felt like a struggle but I look back and there’s a sense of pride I feel over the year I spent there.

The last few were taken at my wife’s apartment when we were dating. Those were wild and formative times for our relationship. It’s where we would dream about a future and plan our lives together. We also saw pictures of her late dog Capone that we thought were lost in time.
