Kerry gave specific instructions that she wanted us to shoot on film, so we did. With our old standby, black and white film in a Leica we photographed the wedding and reception with film beside our normal digital cameras.
The result makes a really nice accent to the color photographs in her album and will make a few good prints for family and friends.

What film and what camera?
Hi Jeahn,
We used Tri-X film in a Leica M6, with my old 35/1.4 sumilux. That lens flares a lot and gets soft when wide open but that adds to the fealing.
Of course, the camera is backed up by 5 years in school, summers at newspapers, winters browsing photo books, and a lot of really bad photos in preparation for these few good ones.
Great work. I love film and Tri-X was a good choice for this assignment. The shots of the guys enjoying a drink out on the terrace and the next one of the bride and groom hugging with the Martini glass in the foreground are particularly strong. I also like the movement and timeless quality of the couple having their first dance – I presume. Great to see people using film and using it well. Thanks for sharing.
