Pittsburgh Candid and Documentary style Wedding Photographer
For couples who love the texture, nostalgia, and honesty of real film.
There’s something about film that digital can’t replicate.
The softness. The grain. The way it renders light. The way it feels timeless before it’s even developed.
Over the past year, I’ve incorporated film alongside digital wedding coverage — and what I’ve learned is this:
Film deserves its own space.
When I’m leading a wedding day digitally, film becomes secondary. This offering allows me to show up solely to document your wedding on 35mm — slowly, intentionally, and without distraction — while your primary photographer captures digital coverage.
This isn’t second shooting.
It’s a parallel, artistic perspective.
Why Film?
Film invites you to slow down.
It’s imperfect in the best way.
It holds light differently.
It feels nostalgic even when it’s brand new.
If you’re drawn to imagery that feels lived-in, romantic, and textured — film might be exactly the layer your wedding day needs.
Lighting Considerations
Film photography responds differently to light than digital photography. For the strongest results, adequate natural or ambient light is essential.
If your ceremony or reception takes place in a venue with extremely limited lighting or flash restrictions, additional considerations or adjustments may be required. In certain situations, film-only coverage may not be recommended.
I’m happy to review venue details prior to booking to ensure the best possible outcome.
What Film-Only Coverage Looks Like
When you book film coverage:
-
I attend your wedding as a dedicated film photographer
-
I document the day entirely on 35mm film
-
I focus on candid moments, editorial portraits, and the in-between details
-
I work organically and in the moment — not rushed, not overproduced
Film coverage pairs beautifully with:
-
Weddings that lean editorial or fashion-forward
-
Intentional, design-focused celebrations
-
Couples who value art over volume
-
Destination weddings wanting layered storytelling

Please Note:
Film-only weddings are accepted in limited numbers and are available for celebrations taking place within six months of the wedding date. This structure allows me to thoughtfully balance my digital wedding calendar while preserving the creative space that film deserves.
A professional lead photographer must be booked for digital coverage.
Film coverage prioritizes candid and artistic storytelling rather than formal coordination or timeline management. Please consult your other photographer before booking with me to ensure this doesn't conflict with their contract and policies.
