When I Grow Up

Jamie Bartlett Blog Post Inspiration, Letterpress 975 Views

When I grow up I want to be like Sycamore Street Press, Byvik Ink and Hammerpress. Jake and I love their companies. They both inspire and motivate us. All three have completely different design styles, but all equally beautiful. But most of all I love that Sycamore Street Press and Byvik Ink are a husband and wife team. Yes, when I grow up I want to design and print pretty things on our little letterpress with my husband. Wait, I am grown up. I better get on that.

We have an update from the progress of our letterpress! The restoration process is finished, and the base coat of paint has been applied. Here are some pictures from the process:

All that’s left is the detail painting and the press should be on it’s way to sunny LA. Jamie and I can hardly wait!

Jamie Bartlett Blog Post Michigan, Photo of the Week, Photography 932 Views

This week’s photo was taken in Traverse City, MI when we were back there visiting this past fall. The City’s downtown is such a quaint place with beautiful old buildings. I love it. I think I could make a habit of hanging out there every afternoon, drinking coffee, and getting lost in a good book.

Here’s our first photo of the week. 

Every time Jake and make a trip to Home Depot to pick up supplies for our projects, we treat ourselves to Coca-Cola in a glass bottle. But this isn’t just any Coca-Cola, it’s made with pure cane sugar. Plus glass bottles are simply more fun to drink out of.  Enjoy.

Jamie Bartlett Blog Post Cameras, Photo of the Week, Photography 896 Views

Jake and I are starting to acquire a small collection of cameras and lenses. We really enjoy photography and thought it would only make sense to start posting a weekly photo. I’ve seen some blogs that do this or something similar; but the photos we post will be taken by us. I think it sounds like a fun project, but first let me introduce you to our equipment.

A lot of this stuff was given to us. Jake’s dad gave us one of his old flashes that is on the E-P1. My dad gave us the KS Super, a zoom lens and a smaller flash. For Christmas Jake surprised me and gave me the Olympus Pen which is the original film model of our digital camera. We were able to buy adaptors so that our digital camera can use the lenses from the Minolta and Sears cameras. In the upcoming weeks we will be posting pictures taken with these cameras. We already shot a roll of film with the Pen over christmas and are waiting on it to get developed. The first photo will be posted this week.
