“I really enjoy shooting on film because it’s a deliberate process that feels a lot like reminiscing. You’re not just snapping away; you’re taking your time, thinking about each shot, and really soaking in the moment. It’s that intentionality that makes the experience so rewarding and personal.”

“People often ask why I still shoot film in a digital world. For me, it’s all about the feeling, like driving a manual car or playing a vinyl record. There’s something deeply physical and intentional about it. Shooting fully manual forces me to really see the light and shadows before I even lift the camera to my eye.”

“Everything in our modern world is so fast paced and ephemeral and I don’t think we take the enough time to really appreciate things. Its cliché to say, but I love shooting film because you CAN take your time. Further, the “challenges” of shooting film, such as cost per exposure, film sensitivity, shot limits, and camera limitations push us towards a greater level of artistic expression and technical proficiency. A more thoughtful approach to photo-taking - that’s why I love film.”

“I like shooting film for creative control of my images, choosing the perfect film stock and settings, and camera for a particular scene. Being able to capture the image I want with little to no post processing. The way it slows me down, and act more methodical in each frame. I love the tones, grain, and I love the limitations that come with film. Probably most of all, I love the film community ❤️.”
