First and foremost, both photographers have so much talent and did such a great job! However, Alexus’ concept resonated the most due to the colors and her usage of her subjects. Really loved how she used kaleb to frame Tia and I also loved how each pose kind of showcased the connection between the two 😄.

I’m going with the film photographer even though the digital shooter was incredible. Digital photographers concept and posing was better but knowing how hard the analog shooter had it and how great the result was I have to give him his due respect. I specifically liked the shot where he had the model “throw” her hair. Tough choice though and much respect to both. Great video!

Both photographers are excellent talents. The young man impressed me the most only because it was film. he was using his digital camera as his polaroid to make his adjustments, very smart. Alexus is straight up a confident fashion photographer! Her use of color, space and composition was superior. They are both winners for me because they were proficient with their tools. Kudos to both.

Alexus’ shoot resonated with me more because you can tell she is in her comfort zone, she knows the exact outcome she wants and she knows how to execute it perfectly. wonderful job!

Both photographers are extremely talented, and I enjoyed watching both of their concepts come to life with the different shooting styles. However, I think Alexus takes this one! Alexus’s perspective on “controlling” the environment and constantly thinking “what more can I do in this space” really shined through in the final pictures. The posing direction and camera angles are immaculate and I love the pop of green.

I was utterly impressed by her attention to detail and execution. I love the use of shapes, composition and how she directed the models on framing. You can tell she is confident in her ability to cultivate exactly what she’s envisioning. Excellent challenge!

Such a fun video! Getting to see Alexus in her element shooting tethered with less friction was such a treat. Nelson's slow approach was really cool too, the intention really shines. I love the 'glow' of those b&w shots. They were both so good, but I think Alexus won-her creativity really stole the show! Maybe they should rematch in an environmental portrait session so it's easier for film to keep up haha.

Alexus sees several visions and executes as much of whats in our head as possible. I honestly loved the simplicity of this challenge, whatever time and prep they had before hand is great if you let them bring in their model and do their thing. Great content Mike.

Finally I did it, you wore me down. I brought a Pentax 6x7 and a 90mm f2.8 (I did get the leaf shutter version). I am still feeling it out and coming to grips of only getting 10 images a roll vs 15 images I got with my Bronica ETRS 645. Results so far have been good. I shoot a lot of strobe so it's an adjustment shooting the leaf shutter lens with the Pentax. Keep up the good work and content, I'll be watching.

Both great photographers and it would be great to see Nelson's digital shots too - just for reference. Like the grittiness of the film but Alexus' images shone out the best - they captured the energy and chemistry of the couple. Also felt that the flash over powered the skirt/dress on the film images and this for me made them look overexposed, though I feel this is Nelson's style (I checked his IG and I think that's his style). The green backdrop and rug, together with the clothes the couple wore, worked brilliantly for Alexus. Kudos to Nelson for using the Mamiya. I use a 5D mark IV at Uni and they are amazing pieces of kit even today and when you see the final images you can tell why they are still solid cameras.

Both Nice work but is it a fair challeneg? If you had 2 film photographers or 2 digital photographers it might be fair. If you had a digital photographer schoot like a film photographer with only 36 photos and not looking at each photo taken then that would be a challenge. The digital photographer had her camera hooked up to the lap top to see each photo. She can take hundreds if not more photos. Raw or Jpeg. photoshop in the computer and the camera. Histograms, white balance etc... In Film you work for the camera. In digital the camera works for you. .

Ok so maybe you can help me some.. First off I loved him using a flashlight to see to get focus lol. I do the same.. But I might have made the mistake and I purchased a fuji GFX system. I always struggled to get good clean images on film.. Now mind you I am still quite young into the film world.. Only about three years .. But I have tested the waters of what I thought was normal exposures lol ended up with under exposed stuff that was horribly grainy and poor color.. Then I went a year shooting heavily over exposed stuff to see how much I could push the film and in hopes to get more detail and less grainy look. That seems to have went ok with a few shoots but most of those where giving me way too dark of negs so I ended up going the other direction too far lol. The GFX system spoils me badly :(. Its just too easy to take photos with and have them look perfect and be there instantly .. I have MANY film cameras and love them. I have fixed , Calibrated and shot almost all of them. Its very rewarding taking 75+ year old cameras out and taking great photos with them. But I still struggle with getting good clean photos.. I see you hand holding your medium format film cameras and getting amazing results with what looks effortless when you do it.. So far most of the films I have shot have all been lower cost stuff. Fuji Sep 400, Gold 200 .. That kind of stuff. I think the cleanest images I have gotten so far are from Ektar 100.. Of course if im talking good photos on my 645 Bronicas. So my question is I have not yet shot any Portra .. Is Portra 160 shot around 100 ISO going to give me good clean photos? Yes I want some grain :). Its film but I don't want it so bad it looks like HP5 or something lol. Thanks and my answer to your video . I liked the digital shoot better not because of film or digital but I liked the poses and the feel better..

I took my GFX and setup some shots then swapped over to my Bronica and took some shots.. They was not too bad but the exposures where still not quite right.. Exposing for film is just different then digital and id love to see a detailed video on how you manage to get such great results shooting flash and strobes with film :).
