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.

Worldwide Pinhole Photography falls on Sunday 26th April this year, so an #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites theme of #wppd2020 celebrating this seemed apt.
We really hope that some of you will take a pinhole shot on Sunday and then upload it to the WPPD website.

Selfish process?
It can sometimes feel that many steps in my photography process are selfish. Some of these I can take as positive, for example the way I now truly photograph for myself and not to please others. (Aside from client based assignments), as was the case when I was locked into the social media game at the start of my photography experimentation. Other times however it can feel that I’m not doing enough to use my photography somehow to produce some visceral change in the world, despite my curr...
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.
SECTION 1 - THE BEGINNING
SHARE YOUR FAVOURITE IMAGE / PRINT SHOT ON ILFORD FILM AND TELL US WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU?

As we're heading towards the end of May, we thought it was the perfect time to ask you to share your #bestshotsofar for this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites.

Sometimes when you look at a picture it brings a specific song or lyric to mind even if it wasn't intentionally shot with that purpose. These are the images that we asked you to share with us this week for our #lyricsandfilm #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites.

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...
