I finally caved on the Retropia lens and I’m quite thrilled! It’s made from a disposable camera lens - soft focus, nostalgic and imperfect… very me!!!
I love my film camera but with two little boys who never stop moving, I wanted something lightweight that I could shoot video on too. This is so light and I can actually take it out with the boys without feeling like I’m juggling everything at once.
These are some of the first shots… a little walk along our local creek. The soft focus and colours give a fairytale feel which I think makes for the most beautiful childhood memory.
No surprises that the little video is my favourite. “Nushrooms” 🍄
