I posed already a few times for these kind of polaroids (some of you probably remember the scanned negatives by Alexander English I posted last June:

Fp100 c is a kind of film that doesn't exist anymore, Fujifilm stopped producing it in 2016. That means that each pack is unbelievably expensive and also a guess, since they're becoming old or even expired. The ones Alexander English shot were expired indeed, and they came out with very weird and interesting effects. Sometimes the mold becomes gold, sometimes the chemicals react in surprising ways creating weird colors, or sometimes it just doesn't come out nothing. So it's a very expensive question mark!
Here we have my favorite polaroid ever (the first one). It's the very first polaroid Aleks took the day we met! Love so much the expression and the hands.
The second one and the one you'll see in the next post on UNCENSORED are 2 photos created to complete a series of 4 (the other 2 were with another amazing model called Irina) for a Polaroid exhibition in Paris. Unfortunately ( for me ahah) eventually he decided to shoot a new series with Irina and he brought that one at the exhibition, but still, I remember the moment we shot with so much love and satisfaction. I tell you why!
He was struggling to find a series of 4 that he really liked, so we selected 2 photos and tried to create something that could match with them, but we only had a few Fp100c left and it was our last day, so there was so much pressure and expectations! But it's been one of those super rare cases where you do even better than you hoped. Can't say enough how much I love working with Aleks and our connection!
See you in a minute for the third polaroid on UNCENSORED ✨
