Film photography and weddings go hand in hand now. It’s become so mainstream and normalized that the film industry has seen a huge surge. So big that it’s hard to keep up with all the new products, film stocks, and fun toy cameras being released regularly. Film is back and it’s incredible to see!
I have been shooting film for almost 15 years and to this day it still brings me the same amount of joy. There is nothing like hearing a shutter from a film camera. It is an instant crowd-pleaser and the ultimate conversation starter.
Film photography adds a level of nostalgia and fills the narrative gap in your wedding gallery with warm real moments that are truly one-of-kind.
These images are all from a Holga 120N with Portra 400NC, expired Rollie color film, and TMAX 400 film.
Everything was shot with the Holga 120N with a flash attached toward the end of the night. This camera is a beauty! I love how unexpected the results are. It’s a gamble with every press of the button, but beauty turns up in everything it creates.
My photography is a blend of art, experience, and instinct—a little bit of this, a little bit of that.
For over 15 years, I’ve been immersed in the world of photography. It all started when I was 18 and stepped into a darkroom for the first time. That moment sparked a lifelong obsession with capturing the world through my lens. It eventually lead me to the fine art space, collaborating with artists, managing studios, and working alongside galleries and museums.
Through years of studying art and photography—both in undergraduate and graduate school—my aesthetic evolved under the influence of critical theory and contemporary art. I found myself drawn to the intersection of traditional documentary photography and spontaneous, unfiltered moments of real life. My goal is to create images that are raw, honest, and deeply human.
Travel plays a huge role in my creative process. I find inspiration in the unfamiliar—letting light, movement, and emotion guide my eye. Photography is my way of making sense of the world, turning fleeting moments into lasting stories. With a camera in hand, everything becomes a canvas, and every frame is a chance to reveal beauty in the unexpected.
