Why Film?
Marissa Paape
Film is much more expensive and much more difficult to shoot than digital. So then, why do I only shoot film? I found myself editing all my digital photos to look like film, and my clients would often prefer the film photos I took to the digital ones. I began asking myself the opposite question, why digital? I loved the process of film so much more, the intention behind each photo, the soft grain, the way film captures light and movement. I became fascinated by the development process of film and every technical aspect. I am still learning, but film has truly captured my heart and I hope you fall in love with film too.
FAQ
Do you travel for photoshoots?
Yes, I'd be happy to travel for shoots. My only requirement is advanced notice
(at least 2 months) in order for me to ensure adequate childcare.
What should we wear for our session?
I can offer a color combination guide for photoshoots, just ask! I want you to feel comfortable with every photoshoot so wear whatever you feel best in.
How long does it take to get our photos?
Depending on the turnaround time for the lab, film photos can take 2-4 weeks to be delivered. The photos are well worth the wait!
