Fujifilm Instax Mini Evo: One Month in Oahu, Hawaii

August 14, 2024 · In: Photography, Travel

During the summer, I spent over a month “living” in Oahu, Hawaii. At this point, I was in a deep photography funk and struggling to use my Sony camera. But of course, I wanted to document my time on Oahu.

Because I didn’t want to walk around using my Fujifilm Instax Mini Evo, iPhone 13 Pro, and Sony a6600 for pictures, I decided to mainly use my Mini Evo because I was having fun with it at that time.

In a way, I assigned myself a photo project of sorts. Capture my summer memories in Oahu on my Fujifilm Instax Mini evo. And so, here it is. A little over a month of living on Oahu, shot on this camera.

If anything, I hope this shows you that you don’t need a fancy camera to document whatever it is that you’re drawn to.

a trip to the Channel Islands more specifically a trip to the Channel Islands 

more specifically to the Santa Cruz Island… a remote island with no stores, no food for sale, and no cell phone service that takes about it 1-1.5 hours to reach by ferry.

we caught the early ferry (very choppy, it surprisingly didn’t bother me, but it did get many others lol), hiked the Montañon Ridge Loop, and hung out by the dock for a few hours before our afternoon departure.

limited myself by only bringing one lens, and well… it was definitely limiting. but that helped me stay more present!

San Diego, to felicity, to Yuma, to delicious tacos in Gila Bend, daily bike rides, and exploring tucson. 

unfortunately it was gloomy all but one day we were in Tucson which provided really crappy light for photos.

The Coronado Times ✨ Feeling disconnected from my The Coronado Times ✨

Feeling disconnected from my camera after returning to the U.S. led me to start a 52-week photo challenge, and later begin my Coronado Photo Project. Which led the Coronado Times to reach out to talk to me about my personal photography project. And that story is now live! 

For over a year, I’ve been working on this quietly. It’s helped me dig myself out of a life slump + see and connect with Coronado in a way I never had before.

I have included some of my favorites in this carousel. 🫶🏼
