Funny how things change. Years ago we waited many weeks for our film to be processed by the labs. Now it can take as little as 5 business days to get it developed. I think it’s because of new machines, and that fact that not as many people are processing film . Now we shoot digital mostly, and the film is done weeks before we will be able to work on it. Analog is faster for workflow than digital with us. I really never saw that coming.
We are a hybrid studio if you are wondering. We shoot both film and digital. These images were shot at a destination wedding in Jamaica. Angie used a Holga camera to take them. It is a 30 dollar camera made in China. It is considered a toy camera, with its plastic lense and plastic body. I am sure there are a few people asking, why with the thousands of dollars of equipment would you choose a 30 dollar camera? To us its the look. The flaws give it character. Think of your favorite actor. Most of them are very distinctive in their look. Usually considered a flaw by many its a signature for them.
