Award winning Chicago based photographer, Rossana Reformado, specializes in Polaroid SX-70 manipulations and digital infrared photography. All images can be made into prints of various sizes, coasters, wood blocks, magnets, ornaments, or pendants upon request.
Photographic Techniques:
Polaroid SX-70 Manipulation
The Polaroid SX-70 manipulations were created by projecting a slide image onto Polaroid time zero film using a Daylab unit. As the film was developing, the image was manipulated by using a sharp tool on the surface of the Polaroid to alter the image. The end result is a photograph with a “painterly effect”. Polaroid discontinued time zero film in December 2005.
Infrared Photography
The infrared images were created using an infrared filter on my digital camera. The filter turns anything with chlorophyll white. The result is a summer scene which looks like a beautiful winter scene.
