Sometimes just getting in the car and going without a particular destination in mind can yield some particularly interesting locations.

Fresh From The Wash

January 17, 2015 in Black and White Film, Nudes, Photo Sessions

Have you ever wondered what it looks like when a roll of film goes through the washing machine and the dryer?

Body Shapes

I've always been a fan of geometry. I find this statement to be true whether I am talking about architecture, nature, or even the human body.

I’ve always liked photographing hands. Perhaps more than any other body part they seem to be unique to the individual and hold a lot of character.

When Film Disappears

January 10, 2015 in Black and White Film, Commentary, Nudes

As a film photographer, one of the things you just have to get used to is the ever changing landscape of available film stock.

Welcome To My Blog

Here you will find the ramblings of photographer Alexis Kennedy, his latest images, and just general thoughts about photography, film, art, and creativity.

Alexis works primarily with analogue film including 35mm, medium format, and large format film.

Just some tall grasses sprouting up in the desert. A small little miracle in an otherwise impossible landscape. Sometimes I have to remember it's the minuscule but impossible moments that matter. Being a witness can be one of those mighty victories.

I have a rare Monday off of work and already I'm going through that stressful tug and pull of what to do with myself. Do I unapologetically rest, kick back, watch some movies, and recharge? Or do I spend the day getting work done, developing film, sc

You can tell a person has too many typewriters in their house when an extra machine sneaks into the background of your photograph. Why would a person need to own two typewriters? Or three? Or ten? They're easier to take care of than house plants I su

Drifting one day to the next can be a comfort or a personal hell, all depends on the morning. When there is fresh coffee in the pot it tends to be the former. When you only have about thirty minutes to enjoy it because you have to whisk off to work i

Look at that guy! Not a single gray hair to be found. An ancient picture of me out in the Columbia River Gorge during the twilight hours.

I admit I am completely oppressed with old Motel signs. I seriously think they represent some of the best examples of colorful design and quirky character on display to the general public.

One day I'd love to road trip around backroads and forgotte

I really like the simplicity of the studio, especially as I get older in my life as a photographer.

Having the ability to spend an extra few minutes to compose a frame to perfection can be a wonderful way to work. Making sure there is just enough s

I have one thing to say and it's not going to be nice. Tonight the United States said loud and clear that it hates women so much it would rather throw in with a known grifter and a fraud. Really seems that being a singularly worthless man is still a

I have a feeling I'm going to spend most of my day feeling quite distracted. Typical. I think it will be best to focus on things like photographs, and records I haven't listened to in a while, and maybe tacos. You know, all the things that are best i

If you haven't already done so, be sure to vote tomorrow. As silly as it may sound, voting is the beginning of every positive leap forward we have and it is incredibly important. Apathy doesn't create change, voting is the starting point.

I'm about to get on my bike to go to work and it's pouring rain outside. Somehow this picture came to mind. This is not a complaint mind you, I sort of like riding in the rain.

I am so out of it that it didn't dawn on me until about two minutes ago that today is Halloween. Go figure... The predominate thought in my head right now is more, "Is it Friday yet?". That's adulting I suppose. I'm very much looking forwar

I do a lot of traveling to small towns and a common thread I see across the United States is boarded up movie theaters along the main strip. It makes me quite sad. So many of these theaters could be community gathering places. Get people out of the h

A little test shot I did a long while back when making sure a new lens I bought worked. I don't have any actual plants at home any more. I'm bad at taking care of them. Just a terrible "plant dad" if you will.
