A San Diego Wedding in Print

San diego, 2026

by Counterpart photographer Malorie Kerouac

“To print at home on an inkjet is… to know suffering.

Basically you get excited, and it gets you to, really distill your work, but then you end up sitting at the printer for seven hours without realizing that time has passed at all.

And meanwhile, all you've done has gone through all your ink, done 15 power cleans, and printed a couple photos that you now realize aren't even the photos you want to print.

Oh and ordered 3 types of fine art paper that you can’t afford and will most certainly never send to anyone.

Which is just the truth.

But it's fun.

It's fun if you're the kind of person that prefers random adventures over a scheduled day.

If you're someone who likes a scheduled day, you will not like printing.

Um...

Yeah, it's pretty much it.

It's really fun to tangibly work with things.

I think for some people - for everybody- it's for something different, realistically, but.. For me, I like things, I like, sort of, tinkering.

I like.. A project that's unplanned, and that I'm unprepared for.

It's almost like I like to fatigue myself with printing.”
