Hello Post

Welcome to Between 2 Lenses: a collaboration between two people! Two perspectives, really! Each of us (Anna and Nick) bring a unique viewpoint to this endeavor.

Engagement Shoot We took Nick's cousin, Kelley, and fiancé, Marty, to Vaughan's Woods in Hallowell on a Sunday morning for their engagement photos.

It was introduced in 1984, along with a complementary line of lenses. It captures images nominally 6 cm × 4.5 cm (hence the Pentax 645!) on 120, 220, and 70 mm... Continue Reading →
