Here's the thing.. Learning how to create my own light with strobes changed everything for me. I can shoot how I want, whenever I want and not have to worry about the weather or available light. This is a huge deal, especially for a film photographer. My work wouldn’t be the same without them! .. I'm excited to announce that I'm now offering one-on-one lighting coaching!! Interested in working with me? Check out sandracoaneducation.com to book your discovery call! ..

I was ask to be one of a small number of photographers to beta test the new @kodakprofessional #ektachrome film and today my first round of scans came in. This film stock is blowing my mind. Almost grain free. INCREDIBLE skin tones. Just amazing. . Big thank you to @kodakprofessional for the honor of being on the Beta Test team! . And big thank you to @elenasblair_photography for trusting me enough to take off her clothes and sit in front of my camera 😂😂😂😘😘 . . .

Raise you hand if you've been following the #ektachromebetatest that I've been participating in? . For those of you who haven't been, let me fill you in.... @kodakprofessional is re-releasing Ektachrome, and I'm one of the lucky photographers who was asked to beta test it #hugehonor . Well... I've sent my first rolls off to @richardphotolab and got a sneak peek of the processed film today! (You can see it in my stories).... and I can already tell, I'm going to LOVE this stock!! . I should have scans back soon, and as soon as I do, I'll share! . Until then, please enjoy this adorable little toy mouse that one of my tiny clients brought in. It was photographed on #portra400 using a @profotousa B2 strobe. . . . . . . #sandracoanphotography #richardphotolab #kodakprofessional #filmisnotdead #filmphotography #filmcommunity #filmmama #lbfilm #letthekidsfilm . #seattlefamilyphotographer #seattlefamilyphotography #seattlenewbornphotographer #seattlematernityphotographer #letthekidsfilm #cmpro #bellelumieremagazine #clickmagazine #familiesonfilm #filmandstrobes #seattlenewbornphotography #seattlematernityphotography #lookslikefilm #clickinmoms #filmsupplyclub #ladybossworkshops #strobesandfilm #simplyposed

Since I've been taking over the @kodakprofessional Instagram account last week, I've been recieved a ton of PM's about my approach to shooting Portra 400 in studio with strobes, so here it is... . I rate my #portra400 at box speed and meter for the shadows, just like I do when working with natural light. Easy peasy! . Questions about shooting film with artificial lights? Please don't hesitate to ask... I'm always happy to help! . And, if you want to learn a quick and easy trick to creating a natural light look, click on the link in my profile! .

I have been chosen as one among a very small group of photographers from around the world to beta test the new Ektachrome film by @kodakprofessional . It's a huge honor!! And I've been working hard all week creating portraits in the studio for the test. . Portrait photography is something that really inspires me. It is challenging to sit a person down in front of your camera, with no other distractions, and create something compelling, something that tells a story and shows us a little piece of who that person is... and I absolutely love it! . I've been getting a lot of questions about the #Ektachrome... and when I'll be able to share the images, and the answer is, I'm not 100% sure... I'm working my way through the film and sending it off to @richardphotolab for processing as I go. And I can not wait to see it! As soon as I can share, I will. . In the meantime... I'm going to go find more people to sit in front of my camera! Looking to have your portrait made? Let me know! . . . #sandracoanphotography #richardphotolab #strobesandfilm #portraitsonfilm #portraitphotography #seattleportraitphotography #seattlefamilyphotographer #seattlefamilyphotography #letthekidsfilm #lbfilm #filmcommunity #cmpro #portraitsmatter
