Towards the end of 2018 I was reviewing some of my Autumn film photography and feeling put off by the results.
I've been working with film for some now in an effort to take advantage of the superior dynamic range. And, when shooting in strongly backlit scenes to move away from silhouettes and ambiguity and towards a more controlled journalistic style.
Shades of Autumn
I found that because of the diffused cloudy conditions in London I was struggling with my exposures and the overall look of my images. T...
For some years, I have been visiting Central Asia. The region with its unique culture and people is always interesting to me.
In spring 2018 I went to Kandahar, Afghanistan and from there to Mazar-i-Sharif and continued to Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. During the trip, I got sick and it was not very enjoyable. In autumn 2018 I decided to go again and was excited to do it without sickness.

The plan was to fly to Dushanbe and from there to continue to the Afghan border in Vanj and...

We recently had the pleasure of turning the tables on one of the stalwarts of the film photography community when we asked Em if he'd be the first of our interviews in the 'Lockdown Sessions'. We're so glad that he agreed.
What made you set up Emulsive.org and what were your initial plans for it?

EMULSIVE started as an idea in early 2015. I thought I should put up a blog where I could post a few photos and blog about stuff that I'd lea...
For the second of our Lockdown Session interviews we cornered another well known face in the film community, Hamish Gill. (We're just glad he could fit us into his hectic schedule)!

That’s a tricky question. The above image is the one that immediately came to mind. I don’t darkroom print myself, but I did print at a workshop at AG Photographic a few ...
The future of photography
The year 2020, it sounds very futuristic to me. So, what does that future look like for photographers?
Well, no doubt technology will be getting more advanced than ever and we will see huge leaps in digital development this coming decade as the megapixel war continues.
There will likely be be new initiatives and more collaborations with smartphone companies. Will the digital SLR camera start to disappear? Will mirrorless take over? Or will there be a new hybrid on the market...
We've been following Dan Rubin's photography for a while now so were really pleased when he agreed to take part in our Lockdown Sessions.

We first met Ray nearly 2 years ago when he agreed to be part of our 'Legends of Skateboarding' ILFORD Inspires YouTube series. We were blown away by not only his talent as a musician, photographer and artist but also his genuine humility as a person.
He was one of the first people that we reached out to, to take part in the Lockdown Sessions and we were so pleased when he agreed. Read on to find out how he has been spending his time.

We have loved finding out more about photographers in our community over the last 3 months in our Lockdown Sessions and hope that you have too.
As we move towards less restrictions here in the UK, we felt it was also time for a new focus (sorry). So we are launching the new series 'In Focus' this week by interviewing professional portrait photographer Craig Fleming.
