Francisco Soberanis: Use your imagination on film

"Use your imagination and the most important thing, CREATE."

Tell us about yourself.

I'm from Mexico and I live as a photographer.

When and how did the film journey begin for you?

I remember... when my father gave me his Canon AE1 and my first shooting with Film was in March 08 2014.

What Could we always find in your gear bag?

You'll find my Sekonic L-308B and of course my favorite Color Film Kodak Gold 200 and BnW Film Kodak 400Tmax and Kodak 400 Tri-x or Acros 100.

What camera makes you click?

I use my Canon Elan 7e , my Yashica fx3 super and my Mamiyaflex 2.8 and my Yashica 635.

Who are your models? How do you interact with them before shooting?

My Models ... most of time are common girls, and sometimes models from agencies in Mexico City. I just talk, sometimes about photography and sometimes just talk stuff.

What inspires you most?

To see the work of others photographers better than me.

Do you have any advice for film photographers out there?

Just expose them well... use your imagination and the most important thing, CREATE.

Do you think you will still be shooting film in 20 years?

Yeahhhh of course... there's no doubt, I love photography.
