Instax Challenge: round-up 2015

Today we are wrapping up the Instax Challenge 2015 with bittersweet feelings: We have struggled to deliver each month a picture but are also happy to have this wall art collection of our year as a carefree return ticket to all those memories.

One of our main goals with the challenge was to use the instax wide more and to take it to our adventures outside (we mostly only had home pics before) so, watching at the wall we can say that this was accomplished. We took more than 30 pictures and 95% of them were taken outside during our adventures! Still we didn’t manage to take it on travels but brought the instax to my hometown to visit my family and even was able to enjoy a beach time with us, lucky girl! (our camera is a she, y’know).

However we also were willing to learn more about how to use it, and well… I’m not sure that I can cross this out from the list. Are we more comfortable? yes! Do we think there was necessary to learn something? not sure! I think it’s those cameras where you can just point and shoot without thinking too much, only take into account that there is enough light or it will come completely black.

We managed to deliver the last picture of the challenge during our New Year’s session which was taken the 31st, so on time! :)

We received this present from our beloved Piri to Juno and we are all so thankful and happy with this thoughtful gift, thanks Yoos, you’re too kind!

And here are the ones that didn’t made the official pic but also were a part of our challenge. Some of these are far from a good shot, but we love to keep them all! :)

THANKS!

We would like to give a big & special thank you to the lovely ones that joined us at some part of the road during this challenge. Here are a few pictures we love!

Fritha from Tigerlilly Quinn joined on Instagram with a pretty bunch of pictures, she definitely has a strong game with the instax! Thanks dear!

Jasmine from Sugar&Dinosaurs joined with a twist by using her Polaroid camera. This picture is vintage-y awesome

Louise from 0023am shared hers on Instagram, and they are so so beautiful!

In the middle of the journey Fee from Burntfeather added the instax mini to her Polaroid challenge. She also made it more interesting using patterned film paper. Fee is the boss of any challenge! <3

Both pictures from Burntfeather.

Maybe we are missing someone that also joined the challenge, so please add your link on the comments if that is the case, we would love to take a look at it!

Thanks for following us during this photography diary, we are not going to continue the challenge for this 2016, but we are planning on keep on taking her around, so I’m sure it will eventually make an appearance on the blog.
