Wedding photography has gone through many trends over the years, but there’s always one that stands the test of time: Film! The timeless look of film photography has such a nostalgic feel that brings us back to our childhoods when we first learned how to work with a camera. Even though digital photography has advanced greatly, even in just the past few years, film continues to be relevant and has grown as well. This is why we believe you can’t go wrong adding Sacramento wedding film photography to your wedding collection!

A Timeless Aesthetic

Film photography will never go out of style. It won’t leave you looking at your images later and thinking “Was I really that orange?!”. If you’ve heard the “Sepia Bride” drama you know exactly what we’re talking about! With film, depending on the film stock used, you know exactly what your images are going to look like. Plus the natural grain and softer color tones of film bring a vintage feel to your images that give your memories a nostalgic style. That pairs really well for the many historic wedding venues in Northern California, like the Vizcaya Sacramento or the Grand Island Mansion.

The Authenticity of Film

The best part of film photography is that it captures authentic, candid moments with a raw, unedited feel. Digital photos are easily manipulated, but film is very much get what you capture. Our favorite moments are those of you hugging your parents or grandparents after the ceremony, those smiles and hand squeezes you share when it’s just the two of you. On film, those little unposed moments just feel more authentic and cherished.

Tangibility & Permanence

We are 10000% believers that your photos belong on your walls and in albums, and with film it’s so much easier to print your photos. We always recommend ordering prints alongside the digital negative scans. With digital photography, it’s so easy to share them on social media and then forget they’re just sitting on your computer or phone. But then when that technology corrupts, what happens to your images? With prints and film negatives, you’ll always have a backup of your images.

Because of these reasons why we love film photography, we’re so happy to offer the option of film photos to all of our clients! We actually started our photography journeys by borrowing our family’s film cameras and using up every roll we could get our hands on. Then in college, we took classes on film photography, even developing and printing our own rolls. Now with years of practice under our belts, we’d love to capture your Sacramento Wedding Film Photography.

We’ve also included some film photos below from our fall mini sessions as well as some personal photos we’ve photographed on film.
