Film Stories #001

I never give significance to technical aspects of photography. /unless it’s the genre that requires one, of course./ Every camera is given in its own shape and size, and we as photographers.. Our duty is just.. to see and feel. Capture the witnessed, felt.

That’s it.

But lately I noticed a huge trend going on around film, then as usual thought to myself: “Naah, I’ll just stick to what I do.”

Ever since it took me exact 2 months to buy a darn film camera in Bangkok and receive my first ever roll developed later in Vietnam. Was so against yet fell for it the most. It gave me whole deeper reason to love photography — “The moments learned from decisions..”

Mucho gracias to film photography happily at the dead end of my budget. But its also grounding to observe myself transforming into a mindful photographer too, so I won’t mind. ❤
