Holgas. On a shoot? Craziness? Oh no. We went out in Westmoor Park here in West Hartford one day this spring and had some fun. You can see these over on Let the Kid’s Dress Themselves as well. My holga and I, we get around.

Two of my images have been accepted into the Plastic Fantastic II show, Girl in Tutu and Beach. This coy, calm sentence belies the giddy, wantonly uncool glee wit which this fills me. I like to think my unhip delight is so very very square that it becomes cool.

Holga Sessions – Free to Book on April Fools

Posted: April 1st, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Film Work, Holga, Maternity Shoots, Portraits of Adults, Special Offers | Tags: , , , , , , | 4 Comments »

Hey, I realize normal people offer sales on more conventional days, like Labor Day, but I’m not especially normal and the holga is not an especially normal camera.

The Sale: A free holga-only session. Must be reserved today (4/1) and scheduled before 8/30/2011.

The Fine Print: There will be a $100 charge to book the session which will be applied to your print order. If you decide you don’t like any prints, your reservation fee will be refunded to you in full.

Why the Fine Print: I am only going to schedule 5 of these free sessions and it’s on a first come, first served basis and I don’t want someone to take a slot and fill up the schedule and then renege. I’m hoping a $100 reservation fee will ensure only people who really want a holga session will book.

What’s a holga? A holga is a plastic toy camera. They are quirky, unpredictable and can produce dreamy images with a fantastical feel to them. They can also produce utter dreck. If you aren’t already familiar with my holga work you really shouldn’t book this.

How do I book? Send $100 to orders@memoriesbystacie.com via paypal. If you are not one of the first 5 to book I will simply refund you the money.

A picture: Because, really, there haven’t been enough pictures this week:
