I often, but not always, take a film camera with me to weddings. This is a somewhat selfish act as I perky do it for my own enjoyment. There’s something about the slower considered act of taking a film photograph which just brings me joy and transports me back 30 years to when my dad bought me my first camera - a Minolta x700.

The old film and this beautiful vintage VW camper from libertycampers just go together so well.
