Is it just me or do you feel like you’re losing trust in what you’re seeing on the internet even more than usual these days. AI slop is running fu***ng rampant, and I’m sick of it!

I’ve been shooting film for a while now, but it feels even more important and rebellious to use film right now where people could easily generate a fake wedding photo using AI.

Film is the most tangible, truthful, nostalgic and authentically artistic medium we have as photographers these days. It’s very unforgiving if you mess it up, but it’s also BEYOND stunning and true to life. I’ve tried to replicate it on my digitals, but it’s just not the same.

And that feels so important and necessary. To have an honest, colorful moment captured with a certain depth that AI and even digital lacks.

And this is why we will continue to always include our signature hybrid method in our wedding and elopement coverage.

We get it - digital is more forgiving and predictable, but it’s that perfect imperfection that makes film some of our favorite snaps in your galleries.

In case you thought we’re just full of sh*t… here’s little proof that we love film so much that we actually exclusively bring our film cameras on vacations now to capture our favorite moments. 💗
