Why film

Why choose film for your Vancouver Island wedding?

Vancouver Island wedding film photography captures your day on real 35mm and 120mm medium format film, not a digital filter. The grain, soft colour and depth of true film give your gallery a timeless, romantic quality that a digital sensor simply cannot reproduce.

The ways we shoot film

01

35mm Film

Warm, grainy and full of movement, 35mm is the heart of our film photography, capturing the candid, in-between moments of your day with a classic, nostalgic character.

02

120mm Medium Format

Medium format film uses a larger negative for a richer tonal range and painterly depth, our choice for portraits and the quiet, held moments you will want printed large.

03

Film + Digital Mix

Want film woven through a full digital gallery? Most of our packages pair the two, so you get the romance of analog alongside the coverage of a modern camera.

04

Polaroid Keepsakes

Instant, one-of-a-kind Polaroids are a favourite add-on, an object you can hold on the day itself and a charming keepsake for your guests.

Vancouver Island film photography FAQ

More questions? Contact us →

What is Vancouver Island wedding film photography? +

It's wedding coverage shot on real analog film, 35mm and 120mm medium format, rather than a digital camera. We develop and scan every frame, so your gallery carries the grain, warmth and timeless character only true film can give.

What is the difference between 35mm and 120mm film? +

35mm is the classic, warm, grainy film, wonderful for candid, moving moments. 120mm medium format uses a larger negative for richer tone and painterly depth, ideal for portraits you will want printed large. Many couples love a gallery that blends both.

Can we have both film and digital photos? +

Yes, and most couples do. The majority of our packages pair film with a full digital gallery, so you get the romance of analog woven through complete coverage. An all-film experience with no digital is also available by inquiry.

Do you travel beyond Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands? +

Absolutely. Our home base is Salt Spring Island and we cover all of Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, but our film photographers travel across British Columbia and beyond for destination weddings. Send your location and dates for a custom travel quote.
