With film photography in particular, people often question why we’re using an “outdated” medium. Are we merely nostalgic? Or is it because being retro is trendy right now? It’s a far greater difference than two differently colored buckets that hold water in the same way. When working with film, you’ve made decisions (before any light even hits the film) that have a considerable impact on the end result of the photo. It starts with the choice of camera—its particular format, its features that might affect the picture, and its technical possibilities and limitations. I realised that I could learn a lot about myself through photography. I wanted to catch not only a moment, but also feelings, emotions, a piece of a story.
