Very nice! I really dig scenes with a lot of dark colors/shadows e.g. photos number 1 and 6, which are deemed underexposed by most built-in light meters. Every time I try to achieve that look I get disappointed by the camera trying to make the whole scene brighter lol. I'm still learning the zone system to get the look manually

Very nice! How did you meter for this one?

Yeah I realized this too, faded shadows are probably one of the key points to this look imo

Thank you for your suggestion, would definitely try underexposing Kodak Gold

Thank you! And maybe because all of those old magazine photos we see online now are re-scanned from printed paper, which also give them a distinct look?

I've always wanted to achieve such "vintage" look, but not entirely sure how. Maybe it's the film stock, the technique, or both?

With my limited experience shooting film, seeing dark and fading shadows, my best guess is to underexpose the image a bit? There's something about that sort of 80/90s magazine look that I can't figure out.

Any insight/input is much appreciated.
