Creative East Lothian Wedding Photographer

Super 8 Cine Film

A Super 8 wedding film isn’t an ordinary wedding film — it’s cinematic nostalgia at it’s best. With its dreamy, vintage aesthetic and soft grain, Super 8 film transforms your wedding memories into a timeless visual story that looks and feels like an old movie. Every frame is intentional, every second infused with emotion, offering a level of authenticity digital just can’t replicate. It’s not just about remembering the day — it’s about reliving the magic with warmth and wonder. If you’re looking for something truly unique, romantic, and emotive, a Super 8 wedding film is sure to be a family heirloom in years to come.

Super 8 films are shot on a Canon Auto Zoom 814 which was made in the 1970s. I use reels of Kodak 50D Colour film, which are then scanned and processed to create a 2K digital film that is delivered to you via your private online gallery. As a back up, I shoot some ‘b-roll’ footage on a digital camera also. Some digital clips of settings difficult for the Super 8 to capture well, such as a dark dance floor, can be cut in to complete your film if desired.
