Are you getting married in Melbourne in 2026? Enquire below!
There’s something about wedding photos that makes time stand still. The food will be eaten, the flowers will fade, but the images are what you’ll return to—year after year. And while digital photography gives you precision and range, 35mm film offers something else entirely: texture, mood, and the kind of imperfections that make an image unforgettable.
At Blossom Daisy Creative, we shoot with both—because your story deserves more than one lens.
Why 35mm Film Feels Different
Film is slower, more deliberate. Every frame counts, so the photographer takes more care with when to click the shutter. That pace creates images that feel less like snapshots and more like portraits of a moment. The colours are warmer, the grain softer. The edges blur in a way digital simply can’t replicate.
A roll of 35mm film is a little unpredictable too. Sometimes the light spills, sometimes a frame comes out hazy. But instead of being flaws, those quirks become part of the charm. They turn your wedding album into something that feels like it has a heartbeat.
What Digital Brings to the Table
Digital photography, on the other hand, is the workhorse. It’s crisp, adaptable, and able to capture everything from the fine details of your table settings to the exact look on your face during speeches. In low light or fast-moving moments, digital gives your photographer the freedom to keep shooting without pause.
It also means no moment goes undocumented. You’ll have hundreds—sometimes thousands—of images that together tell the complete story of your day.
Together, They Sing
The real magic happens when film and digital meet in the same album. Digital anchors your day—it’s clear, sharp, and plentiful. Film elevates it, adding a layer of romance and nostalgia that turns certain frames into works of art.
Imagine: the laughter during canapés, caught digitally so you have every grin. Then, one roll of film shot at golden hour—the grain catching the lavender light, your silhouettes just a touch blurred. The mix feels cinematic, like cutting between different cameras in a film.
You don’t have to choose between clarity and character. You can have both.
Why We Shoot Both
We see weddings as stories worth telling with depth. That’s why our team always carries both digital and film cameras. One gives you the security of never missing a beat. The other gives you images that feel timeless—not in a polished sense, but in a way that pulls you back to how it felt in the moment.
At the end of it all, you’ll have an album that moves between clean, modern precision and nostalgic, textured frames. Together, they create something far richer than either could alone.
Your wedding deserves more than one perspective. With digital and 35mm film, we’ll give you both—the clarity of the present, and the poetry of memory.
