Took this vintage beauty out for a spin today, and wow, what a character lens. 

Outdoor wedding by the ocean with a couple exchanging vows. Guests seated on the grass, surrounded by palm trees and string lights.

There’s a certain magic to the imperfections, that soft falloff, the subtle swirl, the way it renders light… 

Bride in white dress and veil smiles, holding a bouquet of white flowers. She's outdoors in a lush, green garden setting.

It’s unlike anything modern glass gives you.

Bride in lace gown and groom in suit dance joyfully at a wedding reception, smiles wide, with fairy lights and guests in the background.

Shooting wide open at f/1.2 is a challenge, but when it hits, it sings. Manual focus slows you down just enough to really see your subject.

A couple smiling under a vine-covered pergola in a garden. She's in a white dress; he's in a suit. Soft lights create a romantic mood.

Grainy, imperfect, soulful, I’m loving every frame.

Couple joyfully runs under arch of raised arms in a garden setting. Guests wear colorful attire. Ambient night lighting creates a festive mood.

This one’s staying in the bag for sure!


Location: Oahu, Hawaii

Filmed w/ Nikon Zf & Nikon Nikkor-S Auto 55mm f1.2
