5 Reasons Why You Should Love Film Photos: Redlands Photographer
Not sure you’ve noticed but I love to shoot with film. You can say that I am a photographer and I can shoot digital, but I prefer film. What is film? You know, the kind where you place the little canister in the back of the camera and you only have 24 shots and when you are finished you send it to a processing lab to get developed. Crazy huh? Digital is good too, I used to exclusively shoot digital for years.. like 10 years to be exact! But I have found so much beauty in photographing my family photoshoots with film.

Let me share 5 reasons why you should love film as much as I do.
- Photoshoots with film saves YOU and ME time! Valuable time! There is almost zero editing behind the computer after a photoshoot which means you get your finished images from YOUR photoshoot in about a one week turnaround time or less! No more waiting 2 weeks or more for your photos from your photoshoot. How awesome is that? I am just as excited to receive the finished pictures as much as you are!
- Film colors are incomparable! Film colors are FABULOUS!! Digital cameras and all those LR presets will never replicate the colors, softness and sharpness and the tonality of film. There, BOOM, I said it! Now, I know there are LR presets out there that say they do, they come close, but not quite…. but why spend hours behind the computer to try to match it all up, (see reason #1).
- Skin tones are EXQUISITE on film. EXQUISITE. Ever get your photos back and you find your skin tone too red or yellow or even slightly with a green or blue cast? Not so with film! Nope! There is a certain magic with film that makes your skin tone creamy and soft and pretty exquisitely perfect.
- Photoshoots with film slows us down. A film photographer (that would be me) shows up to your photoshoot with so many rolls of film, which means a certain amount of shots. You are with your family and your kids are running around and you can see this photoshoot maybe taking 2 hours… Oh No! Nobody got time for that. We are on task so we can capture more intentional moments. You and I (me, your photographer and you, my client) can relax. You and your family can relax, be in the moment together so more authentic moments are captured. I have about 48-64 shots that I have to make count, not 500 to blow and hope I get something in between.
- With everyone shooting digital and everyone’s work looking the same and trendy, why not dare to be a bit different and go with a film photographer to capture gorgeous, timeless and classic portraits.
