super 8 films
Super 8 has been a big part of my wedding filmmaking for a while now, and it’s my favourite way of filming.
If your grandparents had a wedding video, this is probably what it would have been shot on. Super 8 is an old school film format that uses 8mm film to create a grainy, warm, and nostalgic look. It's not just a way to film your day; it's about creating something that feels timeless, full of character and emotion. The kind of video that would be passed down through generations, holding onto the magic of your wedding for years to come.

what is super 8?
Super 8 film is a vintage film format, popular in the 1960s and 1970s, and known for its distinctive and authentic aesthetic. It uses a film stock that is 8mm wide, providing a unique graininess and warmth that digital formats often lack. What sets Super 8mm apart is not just its technical specifications but the emotional resonance it brings to visual storytelling. It infuses a nostalgic charm, akin to old family films, adding character and depth to every frame.
