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...
As so many of us are in lockdown at the moment, (although I always take my camera with me on my daily walk / bike ride). We thought that #indoors was the perfect theme for this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites.
It took you a couple of days to warm up, but then you rose to the challenge and shared a fantastic selection of images with us. Thank you.

We knew it was going to a good week for submissions when we set this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites theme of #plasticcamera. There are so many choices of plastic cameras out there from the affordable entry level single use and the HARMAN reusable to the 3d printed, homemade pinholes and of course a smorgasbord of Holga, Lomo's and other compact cameras to choose from.
Thank you for sharing such a great selection of images on Twitter / Instagram and our online Gallery. These are our favourites.

An object of beauty
I have just been asked to explain why I use film to make many of my images….. well the simple answer is ‘I like the process….I love the total engagement film gives me. Working out how many rolls to take, what size film to take, packing it all up and hoping I haven’t forgotten my light meter.
I love the reaction when I give somebody a print at 12 inches square in an archival sleeve. It’s an object of beauty, its tangible, it’s exciting, its more than a digital print…...
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...
Balance
Like many photographers these days, I balance a busy day job alongside a family life. I try to be good a community member, share my thoughts and experiences and sometimes, perhaps, inspire one or two. In the background I have long held an aspiration to become a successful professional photographer, something i'm still working towards.
Like all of us I suspect, finding something to focus on, photographically, can be a challenge when life is so busy. The majority of my casual photography currently...
Although we love setting you themes each week for #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites we also really enjoy giving you the freedom to share whatever images you have shot on our film with a theme free week now and then.
@MrRobertTimothyHere's my #Ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites trio - behind the scenes. From an editorial shoot with Charlie, the bloke from the Guess jeans ads. I go through the negs and we mark (on the sleeve) which to scan. Then clean up, crop and final tweaks. #ilforddelta400
