To get accurate exposures, I use an old Minolta IIIF incident light meter. I usually load it up with Kodak Portra 160 or Kodak Portra 400 color film or Kodak Tri-X 400 black and white film. The results you can get out of those huge 6×7 negatives feel almost like large format, with incredibly sharp details and beautiful depth of field fall off. The absolute favorite piece of gear I work with is my Pentax 67 medium format film camera with the Pentax 105mm f/2.4 lens. Slowly I plan on upgrading certain pieces, but I’m not in any rush. I use a smaller ONA Brixton bag and it usually only has half of what I have pictured, but I tend to switch it up based on the shoot.Īlso, I tend to focus less on having the latest and greatest gear and simply try and do the best with what I’ve got. My aesthetic as well as my gear philosophy hinges on minimalism. A great fashion shoot is always a team effort. But I also love collaborating with other creative individuals in the fashion industry. I find I constantly have to struggle against falling into a self-imposed complacency. I enjoy shooting fashion because it requires always being on the edge of the creative process, always trying to think of something new and different. Hello, I’m Jon Duenas, and I’m a fashion and portrait photographer based in Portland, OR.
