35mm Film and Black & White Photography:

Alongside their full-colour wedding gallery, Lockie and Catherine chose to include 35mm Film and Black & White Photography, adding two timeless artistic elements to their collection. The 35mm film images introduce the distinctive texture, warmth, and character of analogue photography, while the monochrome edits place greater emphasis on emotion, light, and composition, creating photographs with a classic, enduring appeal.

Together, these additions complement the full gallery captured in our signature Moody editing style, offering a varied and thoughtfully curated collection. From intimate moments between the couple to candid celebrations with family and friends, the blend of digital, film, and black and white imagery creates a rich visual story that reflects both the atmosphere of the day and the natural beauty of Pauatahanui.

Timeless Imagery with Film and Monochrome:

The inclusion of 35mm Film and Black & White Photography adds a distinctive, timeless quality to Lockie and Catherine’s wedding gallery. The rich tones and organic texture of film photography create a nostalgic feel, while carefully selected monochrome images highlight emotion, connection, and composition in a way that never goes out of style.

Together, these artistic additions complement the full-colour gallery captured in our signature Moody editing style, offering a beautifully balanced collection of images. Set against the natural beauty of Pauatahanui, the combination of digital, film, and black and white photography creates a lasting visual record that celebrates both the atmosphere of the day and the story of Lockie and Catherine’s wedding.
