Thank you, Jan! I still enjoy the film camera every now and again, and some photos lend themselves to that like a vintage wedding dress.

I would like to get a film camera. The end results cannot be replicated with digital.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in our garden at home.

Time

The photo was taken late afternoon on a film camera. I love this photo because of both my child and the dress itself, which was my mother's wedding dress. I loved the idea of it passing from generation to generation.

Lighting

Late afternoon light - image shot on a film a Canon T50 film camera

Equipment

An old Canon T50 Film Camera

Inspiration

The young and the old coming together in a classic way.

Editing

Very little post-processing as it is not a digital image originally.

In my camera bag

My Canon D60 and a variety of lenses and filters. I sometimes take the old film Canon T50 along too.

Feedback

Old family heirlooms are a wonderful way to connect the young with the old, using both an old film camera and a vintage wedding dress tied the two items together beautifully with my daughter wearing the dress.
