Chris and I both LOVE 35mm film photography. It’s where we started. Long before instant previews and endless frames, there were darkrooms, test strips, crossed fingers… and the occasional “well, that didn’t work how we planned” moment.


So recently, I bought us two vintage Canon film cameras. A deliberate nudge back into the film groove, and a way for us to offer something deeply intentional to our couples.


Because film at weddings?

It just hits different.


Film slows you down. It asks you to be present. Every frame is chosen with care, every click made with purpose. There’s no overshooting, no fixing it later—just trust, experience, and instinct. We’ve quietly shot a few surprise rolls for special clients already, and the response has been everything we hoped for. Now, we’re ready to officially welcome film into our offerings.

Of course, the big question was… which film?

Chris and I both have strong favourites. The joy is that we can offer both colour and black & white, each with its own processing style and personality. To test things properly, we each grabbed a roll and went for a wander through the city.

Yes, we did the classic “let’s find something red and photograph it” comparison (I’ll spare you the technical deep dive). But I also took the chance to play with ICM – Intentional Camera Movement. It’s a technique I’ve been exploring personally, and film felt like the perfect medium to lean into that softness, emotion, and motion.


Our Canon film bodies may have been manufactured in the 1980s, but they were absolute top-of-the-range at the time. That means all the features we need for weddings—reliability, precision, and the ability to create memories that feel timeless, not trendy.


We’d genuinely love to know—which do you prefer?

And can you see yourself choosing film for your wedding day?

Film isn’t about perfection. It’s about feeling. And if that speaks to you, we think you’re going to love where this is going.
