On Film
Photographs created using 35mm, medium format and instant film. A slower process that embraces texture, light and the beauty of unpredictability, preserving moments with depth and authenticity.Film photography invites a different rhythm. Every frame is intentional, every imperfection becomes part of the story. A collection of images shaped by grain, light and the quiet magic of analogue processes.
Film photography is an integral part of my creative process. Its slower pace encourages intention, presence and a deeper connection with the moment being photographed. The distinctive grain, colour rendition and organic imperfections of film create images with a depth and character that cannot be perfectly replicated digitally. Rather than replacing digital photography, film complements it, adding another layer of authenticity and timelessness to the stories I document.
Hybrid photography can be seamlessly integrated into any wedding coverage. I work with a combination of 35mm, medium format and instant film, creating a curated selection of analogue images alongside the digital gallery. This hybrid approach combines the reliability of digital photography with the unique aesthetic and emotional quality of film.
I love the balance between precision and unpredictability. Medium format film allows me to create images with extraordinary depth, detail and tonality, while toy cameras embrace imperfection through light leaks, soft focus and unexpected distortions. Together, they offer two different ways of seeing: one refined and intentional, the other spontaneous and playful. Both help me create photographs that feel personal, tactile and full of character rather than perfectly polished.
Film cameras I regularly work with: Mamiya RZ67 Pro II, Mamiya 645 Pro AFD, Lomo LC-A 120, Contax 167MT, Canon EOS 50E, Canon EOS 750, Canon Sure Shot 80, Yashica T2, Polaroid Supercolor 800, Polaroid Impulse and Fujifilm Instax Wide.
The cameras/films that accompany my analogue work.
My work is shot on a selection of colour and black & white films, including Kodak Portra 400, Kodak Portra 800, Fujifilm 400, Kodak Ultramax 400, Agfaphoto 400, Kodak Ektacolor 400 (new) and ILFORD HP5, Kodak Tri-X 400. Each film stock is chosen for its specific tonal response, grain structure and the way it interprets natural light, allowing me to shape a distinct visual language across different situations.
If you’re interested in including analogue photography for your wedding, I would be happy to hear from you.
Honest vision
In an age where everything is immediate, visible, and shared in real time, film photography preserves something increasingly rare: surprise. Every frame is a small act of trust, a moment entrusted to time without the possibility of instant verification. The wait for development transforms an image into a discovery rather than a confirmation. It is a process that restores value to uncertainty, leaving room for the unexpected, for imperfections, and for happy accidents that often become the most meaningful details. If contemporary life resembles a conversation made up of instant messages and endless notifications, film photography is a handwritten letter: it requires time, intention, and patience. And when it finally arrives, it brings with it something we have almost forgotten the genuine excitement of not knowing exactly what awaits us.
