So you’ve decided you want to start taking old school film photos of children, but aren’t sure what kind of camera to get?
The first question is: “What is the look you’re going for?”
If you’re an 80s or early 90s baby yourself, you might be craving that saturated, indoor flash-heavy, darkly-vignetted 35mm film appearance that you remember from your own childhood photos.
A great film stock for achieving those striking greens from your childhood is Kodak Ultramax 400.
Here, I’ve used a purposely low-fi plastic “toy” camera (heavy on the indoor flash) to achieve a set of photos that could easily be accidentally dated to 1993.
