I love candid photography and the disposable film camera (as wasteful as they are) because it reflects the moments more accurately imo. You have one shot, and it may be imperfect. It may be blurry. You might be making a weird face or blinking. But that’s what makes it special to me. I also hate weddings because of how sterile everything is. I get it, we need perfect choreographed photography for certain things. Fine. But rarely do I see any photos of people just having fun and being themselves and goofing around at these sort of events. At best, it’s captured on video by the photographer, but that’s not the same as some candid, intimate photo of the couple with an interesting composition.
I remember when I went on my first date, my family kept asking me if I had pictures. Like… no? I see why people take them, but to me it’s just weird lol.
Yeah, I completely agree. It better captures the transitoriness of life and each moment. That's a really good point about disposable cameras.
As a kid I hated how much my mom and family would take pictures but now that I'm older I'm so glad to see pictures of how things were back then, to see people who are no longer here. I also really like when I'm with a partner who initiates and wants to take pictures (within reason), otherwise then there are no photos of our life together because I rarely initiate. Probably something I should work on more.
