It Is All About The Grain In The Foto!

What makes this 1977 Joan Jett photograph with her giant switchblade cool and iconic is that it was shot with black and white. If we made this photograph in color, it probably would not have reeked of the seventies as much as it does.

Back in the day it was all about shooting these bands with TRI-X film. It was much cheaper than a roll of color film and it is what gives it all of the lovely grain.
