The experience of capturing a moment is something that happens on both ends of a camera. And your professional photographer will ensure that you have hundreds of those perfect moments that you can look back on and cherish. But there’s also something about the magic of taking a picture and instantly having a photograph in your hands—no, we don’t mean with digital cameras and smartphones. We’re talking instant film. Polaroid, might be the name that most people think of, either from dusting off granddad’s camera that he bought in the 70s, or the Outkast song from the early 2000’s. Please note: never actually shake a polaroid picture. You’ll only damage the image.

The allure and nostalgia of instant film is found in the magic of watching your subject appear in the frame within moments. Every print is a unique, one-of-a-kind, tangible experience. Whether kept as keepsakes that you hand down, or share with your guests as they’re taken, you’ll fall in love with the process of capturing ephemeral moments on instant film.
