Why shoot film in 2024 ?
That's true.. Why would you want to shoot film in 2024 in the digital age?
Film photography offers a unique and timeless aesthetic that digital cannot replicate. Film grain, colors, and contrasts create a depth and texture that is unique to film photography.
Film photography allows you to physically hold your photos and negatives, providing a more tactile and memorable experience. Each photo becomes a unique object that you can keep and cherish.
Shooting on film encourages you to think and plan each shot carefully. This develops your photography skills and teaches you to be more attentive to detail.
Using a film camera connects you to a long tradition of photography. You are using a technology that has captured historic moments and has been practiced by generations of photographers before you.
With film, you focus on the moment without being distracted by the screen and digital settings. This allows you to better appreciate and capture the essence of each moment.
