Got myself a new lens hood for my Voigtlander Nokton 35mm. So far, love it! Been out shooting all day with it today.

They really are!! I love all dogs but bullies, especially Frenchies and Bull Terriers, forever have my heart

A few studio shots from the recording of the new @corrediablo.bsky.social LP. It’s been cool to document the process. Finished bass yesterday. Now I only have vocals left to go. This record is getting very real!

Gotta make sure to have a lifetime supply of these things too

Xavier Delgado @fotoxav.bsky.social · Jan 31

If you’ve never shot Aerocolor, it’s cool and really versatile. Enjoy some samples from a day out with the wife and kid a couple of years ago. My lab scanned them a little warmer than I would now, but great results nonetheless

Got a great deal on 10 rolls of Santacolor (Kodak Aerocolor IV) from Kamerastore. Comes out to $8.90 a roll, shipped. I’m a big fan of this film!

PS I have no skin in this game, just really love sharing a good deal on #film 🫡

Xavier Delgado @fotoxav.bsky.social · Jan 31

Would love to be added, thanks!

Xavier Delgado @fotoxav.bsky.social · Jan 31

Just like, do it. Don’t overthink it! Write about each of your shoots, or go take a walk and snap some photos, talk about your experience. You got this big dawg 😤

Like many, I’m fed up with bigger social media platforms. Before politics became a part of that train wreck, I was simply not having fun with them, especially a certain photo-turned-short-video one. But as a photographer, I like having somewhere to share photos, so that’s my goal for the blog.

Xavier Delgado @fotoxav.bsky.social · Jan 30

Just launched something that for me, feels like a big step I’ve been wanting to take for a while- a legit blog. Check it here- open.substack.com/pub/fotoxav/...

Woman, wearing a long coat and thick scarf, standing at hotdog stand in contrasty sunlight. She has a dog on a leash and the dog is looking at her with an expectant expression.

Sometimes a drive with speakers blaring the Against Me! catalog is the only way to get through the day.

Long Beach, CA, 1.25.

Met these two while getting out of the smoke and ash in LA for an afternoon earlier this month. Going to continue to explore #streetportraiture this year, especially when dogs are involved!

PS I don’t love the VSCO blog platform but it works for now, and I accidentally let the 7 day free trial lapse on the “pro” membership so might as well use it 🙃

Xavier Delgado @fotoxav.bsky.social · Jan 29

My next step in pulling myself away from meta platforms is underway- a photo blog! Check out the first post here vsco.co/fotoxav/jour...
