WTF IS ANALOG

Wedding film photography, 32mm, 120 Ivy and pine photography

What’s film photography all about? It’s pretty simple – you take pictures using a roll of film. When light hits it, it captures the image, and then you develop the film with chemicals to actually see the photo. It’s an old-school way of taking pictures that gives a totally different vibe than digital. The look of film is classic and can’t be copied by a digital camera – we’ve tried! We base our digital editing style on film, because the colours and textures film produces are one of a kind. Each type of film has its own unique feel. Film makes you slow down and really think about your shot. It’s more manual and a bit of a process, but that’s what makes it so fun for us. It’s nostalgic, timeless, and just has that something special.

WHAT FILM DO WE USE?

120/Medium
Format

It's larger than 35mm film, which allows it to capture more detail and produce higher-quality images. The film is about 60 millimetres wide, and depending on the camera and the frame size, it can give you anywhere from 8 to 16 photos per roll.

AND 35mm

It’s called "35mm" because the width of the film strip is 35 millimetres. This film size is popular because it’s small, portable, and can capture high-quality images. It’s been widely used in both still photography and movies. Each roll of 35mm film has a certain number of frames, usually 24 or 36.
