The Summer of Polaroid Go — Jennifer Stamps

The Summer of Polaroid Go

This summer (2025), I brought my tiny, purple Polaroid Go—affectionately named Petunia—with me just about everywhere. Together we wandered through Disneyland, soaked up Miami, danced at the Cowboy Carter Tour, and even made it all the way to Spain.

My goal was simple: capture summer. What does it look like? What does it feel like?

Over the season, I went through 16 packs of film—just over a pack a week—and ended up with 122 photos I truly love (with a few quirky misfires along the way). Below are some of my favorites that sum up this magical time of year.
