What is film? — UNCOVERED FIGURES

Film photography is a traditional method of capturing images using a camera that records light onto a roll of light-sensitive film, rather than a digital sensor.

Load the Film: A roll of film is placed inside the camera. This film is coated with chemicals that react to light.
Capture the Moment: When you take a photo, light enters the camera and hits the film, creating an image.
Develop the Film: After shooting the entire roll, the film is processed in a lab using special chemicals to reveal the images as negatives or slides.
Create Prints or Scans: The negatives can be used to make physical photo prints or scanned to create digital files for sharing online.

Why Choose Film Photography?
Think about your parents’ or grandparents’ old family albums—those faded, warm-toned photos filled with memories. It offers a unique, timeless look with rich colors, soft grain, and a nostalgic feel that digital cameras often can’t replicate. It’s a hands-on, creative process that slows you down and makes every shot intentional.
