Film Photography and Weddings

So film photography?

Do we like it or is it just a bit of a trend?

For me, done in the right way it can be a great alternative to the world of AI that we see burgeoning on our screens. Do we really need more ChatGPT cartoons? they are fun for a couple of minutes but that isn’t a sentence for wedding photos…is it?

I feel that a roll or two of film could make for a unique yet nostaligic keepsake. Warm tones, a bit of grain, direct flash, red eyes, light leaks and not always a sharp image can add an air of realism to your day.

I’m not hear to argue against digital photography as the cost of taking hundreds of photos on film would be ungodly, time-consuming and digital photography is more likely to guarantee successful wedding photography.

So here are a few samples of what can be done with a simple point and shoot film camera from the 1990s and a roll of Portra 800 and yes, I have included a happy accident in here!

If this is something that you would like as an additional extra, then please lets have a chat!
