Hi!!

ISO those with the same appreciation for a documentary approach to photography!

I love photographs that feel lived in and honest and I care much more about capturing a moment as it actually felt than creating something purely for the sake of getting a photograph. I really love working with people who feel similarly and who are comfortable just being themselves on their special day.

I shoot solely on analog but mainly 35mm film! I would love the opportunity to share my sample work with those who resonate with this post.

I’m a teacher full time and have spent the last few years building my photography up very organically alongside my teaching. Having a career that I genuinely love outside of photography has allowed me to be really intentional about the work I take on and the people I get to create with!

I’m also looking for people who would be comfortable with me experimenting alongside my 35mm work with a couple of other film formats I’ve been exploring!

I have a beautiful folding camera from the 1950s that shoots 620 medium format film producing a super sharp center with a softer falling off that is so beautiful.

I’m as well experimenting with super 8 and both are things I’m really excited to incorporate more into my work

I’m not looking to replace my 35mm coverage with these formats or promise any particular results from them while I’m still learning. I just love the idea of being able to experiment and create something a little different alongside the photographs I’d already be making for you.

I’m open to weddings, elopements, couples, families and really any kind of connection or moment that feels meaningful to document!

I price my work based on the amount of film we decide to shoot and am always happy to have a conversation about what might work within your budget.

I would love to hear from you if any of this resonates with you!!

Located near Toronto, Ontario! Happy and willing to travel for the right opportunity!

i recently picked this up and am trying to figure out if the automatic exposure meter is functioning properly before purchasing film.

at the store initially with old batteries it showed the red underexposure warning which i was in a dim store so that checked out. then in the car it was stuck at f/8 regardless of lighting whether i pointed it at sun or my black floor mat and after replacing the batteries it disappeared entirely just showing 2 faint white lines with no number in between before eventually showing f/11 and staying stuck at that now.

i’m wondering how quickly the meter responds to changes in light for anyone who owns one? should i be seeing an immediate change when moving from darkness to daylight?

does yours respond without a cartridge inserted?

also curious about the little rectangular window underneath the bauer badger on the front! i can’t find anything explaining what it does.

would LOVE any insight from somebody who has actually shot with this model!! how is the footage?

Hi!! Kind of a niche post but I shoot weddings and people entirely on 35mm film and there are a few things I have been absolutely dying to photograph.

For some very specific shoots I would be happy to photograph them for just the base cost of the film/developing + travel if applicable outside of the GTA. Basically you cover what it physically costs me to make the photographs.
A few things currently very high on my list:
— a birth. Home birth hospital birth. I would LOVE to document one on film and this has been on my list forever.
— a wedding ceremony inside an old church with lots of stained glass. The more old beautiful coloured light the better.
— a tiny courthouse/city hall wedding with just the couple and a few people they love.
— a winter wedding or elopement in real snow.
— a cottage/lakeside/beach wedding or elopement.
— a teeny wedding followed by everyone going for dinner together at a restaurant.
— a camping/woods elopement where that’s genuinely something the two of you love doing.
— a destination wedding!!!
— I would also really love to do an at-home maternity or newborn session but specifically in a very documentary way. I don’t mean posing a newborn in a basket. I mean following you around your house while you make coffee and feed the baby and sit in bed and your mom comes over and life is actually happening.

My work is very documentary and lived in. I’m much more interested in what something actually felt like than making everything look perfect. I shoot solely on film and am also bridging my way into super 8 motion picture film if that interests you!!!

This isn’t an offer for every wedding/session for the cost of film!! These are just a handful of things I personally really want the chance to photograph and experiment with.
I’m based in Ontario and happy to travel. For anything outside the GTA I would just ask that travel is covered as well.

If you’re doing something that isn’t on this list but read this and immediately thought “she would love this” honestly tell me about it anyways because I probably would lol. I’d love to hear the weird specific sentimental details.

I would love to chat about film! Please reach out via DM or leave me a comment and im HAPPY to reach out to you<3

I am a solely analog photographer specializing in 35mm film. I have years of passion for film behind me being drawn especially to capturing real emotions and freezing moments in time that feel as they felt to live.

I have experience shooting weddings as well as elopements both as the main photographer and as a second shooter on film and am currently located not far from toronto, ontario.

I’m looking for opportunities to practice my craft in ways I haven’t so far.

I would love to offer my services at cost plus travel for destination weddings or elopements worldwide.

For those local to the GTA i am open to courthouse/intimate weddings, maternity/arrival of baby and labour/newborn with mom and dad, other meaningful once in a lifetime events.

I would love to share my work for sample. I strive for as little posing as possible and am a photographer for those who appreciate that<3

i am putting this post out as i will be in toronto ontario for the weekend of August 1 and 2 and would like to connect with any couples interested in working together.

someone scrabbling for a last minute engagement photographer is what im envisioning but i am so open to other opportunities!

i shoot solely on 35mm film and would love to connect!

looking to connect with those who share the appreciation of analog, specifically 35mm film!!

i love film photography for its ability to capture the feeling of the moment so well. my style of shooting is very natural with the aim to work with couples who share the same love for a natural candid and a documentary style approach.

i’m based near toronto ontario and willing to travel. i would absolutely love to connect with anyone who loves film and is looking for someone to shoot their wedding or elopement! i am also super open to working alongside an already hired digital wedding photographer if they permit.

i would be so grateful for the opportunity to share some of my work for sample. on a case by case basis i am open to remaining summer 2026 dates for the price of film, developing, and travel if applicable! coming from a place of genuinely loving film so much and wanting to grow in the industry!!

thank you so much for your time in reading!

i absolutely love my olympus pen EF half frame. i also have done a lot of learning and practice and love my canon eos 500 slr when i shoot with a high aperture. i love deep depth of field.

i’ve been really drawn to the nikon f3 with waist level finder for years and more recently i feel really confident in my improvement in skills shooting manual. but im also intrigued by the other olympus half frames that are more manual. im also open to something that’s not even on my radar.

thank you in advance!
