Why do analog photography in 2024 ?
That's true... Why do you want to do film in 2024 in the digital age?
Film offers a unique and timeless aesthetic that digital cannot reproduce. The grains of the film, the colors and the contrasts create a depth and texture particular to film photos.
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 details.
Using a film camera connects you to a long tradition of photography. You're using technology that has captured historic moments and been practiced by generations of photographers before you.
With film, you focus on the present moment without being distracted by the screen and digital settings. This allows you to better appreciate and capture the essence of each moment.
