Why use film?
With the megapixel count of digital cameras rising every year, why would so many photographers go back to shooting film?
Realistic isn't always better
Perfectly
imperfect
Timeless colors
Because every film negative is unique, it makes even the smallest moments feel special.
My digital camera is so powerful that when I zoom in, I can see every one of your pores.
Digital cameras are reliable but are they always pretty? No.
Not only does film make skin look luminous and healthy, it also has colors that never go out of style.
A limited number of frames enables me to slow down and focus on lighting & composition — the core elements of A good photo.

Like the warm sound of vinyl, film has soul.
As much as I try to match film and digital, sometimes the film images outshine them.
Each film stock's unique quality gives the picture character.
That's why it's my favorite medium to use on wedding days.
From travel to personal moments with family and friends,
film captures people best.
