35mm

Over the last few months I've started to capture my experiences and everyday life on 35mm film, creating albums of prints to have as life-long memories, away from Facebook, Instagram and lost hard drives. I remember as a kid I could spend hours looking through my Nan's photo albums; my grandparents had a whole wall dedicated to them in their front bedroom.
