Top reason to add Film Photography to your wedding day

We have all seen Film photography floating around over the last 12 months. This is something that I now offer which you can see here: Film Photography. Why has it become so popular and why should you consider adding it to your wedding day?

Film Photography adds Nostalgia

While the addition of 35mm film photography is not meant to take away from yuor digital films, it does add its own twist on the day. Your digital files are your safe files- able to be printed at high resolution and are super clean. But film photography adds grain, depth and nostalgia to your day. Making it quite timeless.

Film photography creates romance and a soft aesthetic

While digital photography can be edited to have a film look. Nothing can beat true film photography. Depending on what film stock is used, this often gives a warm, rich, grainy and soft aesthetic. Adding noise and depth to an image. Often making images look like ‘old money’ vibes and a vintage look.

Film Photography is Timeless

While trends can come and go, it is the same with photography. We tend to follow trends and even fashion seasons which can mean digital photography might have a certain shelf life where you know which year it might have been captured based on the look of that time. However film photography is timeless and elegant. It stands the test of time and is something to treasure.

Film photography gives photos purpose

The creation if digital photography gave weddings the ability to be captured in more of a ‘failsafe way’ meaning more and more photos were taken to make sure a timeline of the day was created with hopefully very little missing. With Film photography you only get a certain about of photos per film roll so you have to be mindful of the choice of image, the composition, the subject and the message you are trying to convey to the viewer. ideally creating a mini documentation of the wedding day as a while. But maybe only 1 or two frames per each part of the day. Meaning each photo is carefully considered and taken. Especially with lighting consideration and manual focus.

Film photography is perfect for any wedding. Whether that is luxury, barn, country and outdoors or destination. It captured any wedding the same: authentically, elegant and timeless. Pop me a message to see how we can incorporate Film Photography into your wedding package.
