My husband, Joshua is offering film in the form of Super 8 emulation, as a beautiful way to bring your day to life. Although we truly love Super 8 film it is highly unreliable and unfortunately quite expensive which is what brought us to Super 8 emulation.
We believe our Super 8 film style has an artistic synergy with our photography by bringing the same warmth, texture, and nostalgia to motion. The grain, color shifts, and imperfections create a timeless, intimate feel that compliments our photographic style—honest, emotional, and deeply personal.

FILM
We feel that Cinematic videos often feel less personal compared to Super 8 emulation because they are too polished, posed and controlled. Super 8 film has an organic, imperfect quality—grain, flicker, soft focus, light leaks—that makes it feel raw and nostalgic, like a home movie or a lost memory.
Cinematic digital footage, on the other hand, is usually sharp, high-resolution, and color-graded to perfection, which can create emotional distance. Super 8 emulation mimics the tactile imperfections of old film, making videos feel intimate and real, as if they were pulled from a forgotten archive rather than carefully staged.
It’s like the difference between a Hollywood film and an old family tape—one feels crafted, the other feels lived in.
