The Story

Choose Your Own Adventure I & II prints are twin triple exposure images split across two frames. The overlay “effect” was created on location in camera. Shot on the Pentax K1000 using Fuji Superia 400 film.

It was a dreamy golden hour at Twin Lakes, Colorado. We spent the warm summer day relaxing by the shore, dipping our toes into the ice cold water, and watched the sun set before returning to our campsite.

Up & Away

The Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta was an incredible joy to witness. Waking well before sunrise was worth it as we watched the flames light up the dark sky.

The first balloons went up and the sun followed soon after. We were speechless as hundreds of balloons took off in sequence.

Check out the video for a glimpse of the experience!

The Print

Kristen used the Pentax 67ii with Kodak Gold 200 film to create this image.
The jumbo polaroid-inspired print is 14x17” including borders.

Unique landscape images shot on film and printed with archival methods designed to pass down for many years to come.

lovingly crafted images to take you away and bring you back to yourself


  • Shot on the Pentax 67II and the Pentax K1000 using professional photographic films

  • Kristen collaborates with the extraordinary qualities of film and plays with transmuting the idea of “mistakes”. Double exposures, light leaks and experimental films all hold a particular beauty unique to photos made on film.

  • Kristen uses archival inkjet printing and acid-free papers to create high quality giclee prints meant to pass down for years to come. With her work as a printmaker, she is able to bring these images to life in their fullest expression.
