Throwback vibes… 🎞️
So you may have seen a few peaks recently from what can only be described as an epic brand shoot with the fantastic and gorgeous couple behind Haynes & Haynes Commercial Finance.
Having the opportunity to shoot at a historic Wigan location, now known as cottonworkswigan inspired me to dig out some old kit aka the Bronica which, in case you’ve never heard of is an analogue medium format camera and uses 120 film, each frame measuring 6x4.5cm which has a little while ago produced beautiful results.
The last time I used this camera was probably around 20 years ago for one of my early solo Weddings, it was also used a lot for my final uni project to capture 100 people on black and white film (1 roll of film per person all processed by me! I really miss those darkroom days!)
Using old film that had likely been sat for around 20 years in that camera bag was a bit of a risk, I shot mostly digital but this was a bit of an experiment I was pretty excited about on the day and a bonus for the shoot.
So today I received the processed negatives in the post and opened the link from the hi res scans from my very trusty lab and, miraculously here we have the results (of course with a teeny little lightroom tweak) but I’m loving the vintage grainy results! What do you think? Would you book a combined session with a mix of analogue & digital?
