Fashion On 35mm Film

Fashion on film - experimenting with film photography for outfit posts
My love for photography truly began when I studied analog photography for A-level but because of the ease and cheapness of digital, I have only been sporadically taking film photos...until now. I had been toying with the idea of trying film photography for an outfit post for a while and finally took the plunge this summer. We did not even take any digital back-ups because I wanted to be fully committed to this experiment and I was confident enough in the art and in my photographer that I thought they were not needed - and I was right. These days we are too spoilt by being able to shoot hundreds of photos, pick our favourites and edit them to perfection and although this is extremely convenient, sometimes I wonder - where is the beauty in that? Even - what is the art of that? So I thought I would strip things back, take just eight outfit photos - all of which you see here and have not been edited - and try fashion blogging the way our mothers would have done it, if such a thing had existed back in the 80s.

I am absolutely chuffed with these photos. With just eight photos to play with, I had to really pose and there was the danger that these photos wouldn't look natural but I don't think that is the case at all! In fact, I almost like that in the third photo down I am mid-blink as this makes things more real. 

I love the aesthetic of film - its vintage grain, different colours and perfectly imperfect out of focus blur - and it is certainly something that I want to incorporate more frequently onto this blog. I have another mini film outfit post coming later in the week that we shot one beautiful morning in Barcelona and after that I have to get shooting in Montreal!

Let's talk fashion now because this is an outfit post after all! I have already posted a summery outfit featuring this WHITE BLOUSE but this is a much more transitional look that I have been craving oh so much recently. I always think that white blouses look so great just tucked into a pair of jeans and today I have finished the outfit with my favourite silver boots to make this look a little more special for the film! 

What do you think of film photography? Would you like to see outfits shot on film become a regular feature on Fashion Et Moi?

Fashion on film - experimenting with film photography for outfit posts
Mon amour de la photographie a commencé quand j'ai étudié la photographie analogique au lycée. Cependant, dans les années récentes, à cause de sa facilité et son bas prix, je préférais la photographie numérique et je prenais des photographes de pellicule de temps en temps...jusqu'à maintenant. Depuis longtemps je pense à essayer de la photographie analogique pour prendre en photo une tenue et je l'ai fait cet été - enfin! On n'a pas pris des photos numériques de la même tenue au cas où cet essai n'a pas marché parce que je voulais me commettre totalement. J'ai eu assez de confiance dans l'art et dans mon photographe et j'ai eu raison. Aujourd'hui, on est trop gâté car on peut prendre des centaines de photos, choisir nos préférés et les éditer pour qu'elles soient parfaites et même s'il est plus pratique, je me demande, où on trouve la beauté? Même - c'est l'art? Donc, j'ai pensé à revenir à la photographie traditionnelle, prendre que huit photos de tenue - vous voyez tous sans éditer - et essayer le blogging de mode comment nos mères l'auraient fait s'il existait dans les années 80s.

Je suis vraiment contente avec ces photos! Vu qu'on ne prenait que huit photos, il fallait poser et j'avais peur que ces photos ne paraîtraient pas naturelles mais c'est le contraire! En fait, j'aime que je suis en train de cligner dans la troisième photo - c'est plus réal comme ça.

Je kiffe l'esthétique de pellicule photo - son grain retro, ses couleurs différentes et son flou imparfait mais parfait au même temps - et je veux bien faire des photos comme celles-ci plus souvent sur ce blog. Plus tard dans le semaine, je vous montrai un deuxième petit poste de tenue shooté en pellicule à Barcelone et après il faut que je commence à shooter à Montréal!

Parlons de la mode maintenant parce qu'après tout c'est un poste de tenue! Je vous ai déjà montré un look d'été avec ce CHEMISIER BLANC mais aujourd'hui c'est un outfit de transition. Je trouve que des chemisiers blancs vont super bien rentrés dans un jean et aujourd'hui j'ai mis mes bottines argentées pour un look plus spécial pour la pellicule.

Qu'est-ce que vous pensez de la photographie en pellicule? Voulez-vous que la tenue shooté en pellicule devienne une poste habituelle sur Fashion Et Moi?
