During Document You sessions, good things happen when we get invited into the lives of couples, and share a story of what it is they do. Katie and Andy have a son and spending time outdoors with him on Katie’s parents farm is an awesome day in their world. Add walking their dog along the…
A few weeks ago, I meandered over to the Vancouver Flea Market and picked up an old film camera and some lenses for a pittance. Just to mix it up a little. I’ve shot a few rolls by now, and even though I’m still very much learning the ways of film photography, I figured I…

LOVIN’ these frames, dude! Looking forward to more!
Awesome! Im trying to learn film more as well. What camera did you use? Looks great.
you sure you’re only just starting out with this? haha. awesome.
Meredith: They’re all shot with a Canon AE-1.
second frame is fresh to death.
Love the old radios!
I’ve always loved your compositions and seeing it on film just made your work even more interesting to look at. Light leaks, double exposure, flare. Love it.
before you know it you’ll be rockin a contax and fuji 400…this is how it starts…
Great work, absolutely loving #6. This has inspired me to go and grab my old Pentax camera and shoot another roll!
Love the light leaks in the photos!
No surprise that you would be great at shooting film! Awesome stuff.
love. perfect post. i heart film x
Working with film is such an awesome experience. The colors and the feel of pictures that we get is out of the world.
Whats the red strip.. can you share that.
Girish: Light leaks.
Beautiful. Love the light leaks and the double exposures.
Love the light leaks, creates a beautiful uniqueness to the images.
Beautiful stuff man! Keep going!!
wow, back to the roots :)
Your eye is just impeccable. Film is definitely your friend :)
Hey, looks like you’ve been to Portland!
The old radios! My favorite shot and certainly fits the film vibe perfectly. Outstanding, as always.
The frame with the antique radios? Love it!
Film has this great quality…
Nice stuff, Jakob. I really like your compositions.
a cut above. your eyeballs are too good.
love it, great images. the image with the kick feels great
thank god for leaky cameras. These are awesome Jakob.
These are amazing. I purchased an old film camera a few weeks ago as well and can’t wait to get my film developed.
this is great Jakob! You’re a fast learner!
the red energiser column running through the sun shot is cool
cheers!!!!
Awesome series! Love the compositions and the light leaks worked in your favor.

Nessa +million.
WOW this is incredible!!
This just rules. Such a sick shot.
This is perfection.
WOW. Love love this!
Nailed it!
perfection.
Amazing detail. I love how everything is silhouetted but still flows without getting blocked up. Tons of points on the composition and bonus points for making the bride and groom create the initial of my first name. (and if there was a reflection somewhere, my LAST name too!) :)
you must have a good camera ;). but seriously this is amazing!
Great composition. Stunner!
Great stuff guys! Is that cropped or did you invest in a medium format camera? Thanks for a great blog.

Bryan makes beer that would knock your socks off. At his wedding, the beer he served the guests was absolutely awesome. 12% alcohol content and smooth as silk. Delicious. When we first met Grace and Bryan, we never would have guessed that one of their favourite pastimes together is checking out brewhouses. And as we…

Fantastic work, beautiful colours! Nordica lads!
every single time in WOWing myself!
Epic photo of the bride and groom in front of the hedges. Great work.
Melissa and Josh’s wedding portrait request was something along these lines: Just do what you do. We’ll give you all the time you need. Creative freedom is a very good thing. One of the biggest challenges that we look forward to with weddings is scouting locations, and ideally, never using the same spot twice. So…

these images are “vintage nordica” as well. superb gents!
i feel like saying “you’re a machine!” – but it wouldn’t be quite true, since you keep on looking. you keep on creating new. machines don’t create new. so. you’re beyond a machine! yes. that you are!
Great, guys!
Quite splendid old chaps.
The mysterious announcement of something beautiful.
Sick frames. You guys are brilliant.
Yay guys! :)
Yay indeed! I’d like to take a walk through Nordica land some day
Mint work guys – as always!
Honestly you always kill it, I can’t wait for your next posts. They are the first things I look for in my reader. The last shot is my favourite.
that last frame is magic. so intimate.
