Hey Tumblr! Our first BlackExcellence Spotlight of is Aundre Larrow aundrelarrow , a Brooklyn-based visual artist whose work has been featured on Adobe, Walmart, Verizon, and more. I started taking photos on borrowed film cameras from friends until I turned 15 and my theater teacher gave me his old Minolta SRT as a gift. After that I would use my money from working at Old Navy and whatever I could talk my mom into donating to buy film and get it processed at the Walgreens a mile walk away. The passion started when I realized I could freeze moments I held dear and capture them. I loved getting my film back. I loved sharing it; Making little yearbooks and giving them to friends. I still have some of those prints in my childhood room. I read an article on Mic. And it got me thinking.

My base was a very pale yellow to begin with, and I began with the toner Wella T18 mixed with 3 capfuls of Violet Additive. The dye itself was a bit more liquidy than I had expected, and was a dark purple color. I left it on for 25 minutes.

God loves every last one of us, regardless of religious affiliation. I had been teetering on the fringes for quite a long time, mostly coming to Church but not really being present, because I felt like an outcast as an older single. Oh, and remember LDS girls are usually good at leading guys on with potential sex to get guys to agree to what they want join the church. But he does want to get married to and to have kids.

The passion started when I realized I could freeze moments I held dear and capture them. I loved getting my film back. I loved sharing it; Making little yearbooks and giving them to friends. I still have some of those prints in my childhood room.

I read an article on Mic. And it got me thinking. I thought back to this teachable moment I had after college. I was interning at the Gainesville Sun.
