But Jennafer Steele and Jeff Euen always knew their love would last. From her first freshman UConn game through living apart, graduate school, their dog Brady and beyond, they’ve shared what friends and family call a storybook romance.

You could see Jennafer and Jeff’s staying power in the unbroken chain of UConn home games they’ve tailgated and cheered atóa tradition paused only for their wedding on September 26, 2009 at the Log Cabin in Holyoke, Massachusetts on a perfect fall day.

These next two images were shot with an old school 4×5 film camera. It’s big, cumbersome and slow, but the look of large format film is beautiful!

More film: this next image was shot with my trusty Holga.

It’s not until now that I finally got around to processing the images. These were shot on 4×5 film. Film is still lovely!

It was grueling work, but very rewarding. As I got busy with weddings and portraits I stopped working on that project for a long time, but last Saturday I decided to push myself again. The night was beautifully foggy and I couldn’t resist. I left my apartment at 10pm with my 4×5 and came home at 6am. In those 8 hours I produced 8 images, and these are the results. Most were shot in Everett and a few in Somerville.

Disclaimer: these were scanned at home on a crappy scanner and not worked on much. As such they are not complete. I will be printing these myself in a darkroom, at which point the final version of the images will reveal themselves to me.
