Little Vintage Photography: The Original Analogue Adventurer!

Dec 06, 2018

Today we are delighted and honoured to be talking to Rachel Brewster-Wright. Many of you will be familiar with her voice as one of the intrepid Sunny16 stars, or seen her nominated as one of the RPS Hundred Heroines - but did you know she also runs a company, has an Etsy shop and is an advocate for encouraging women in STEM?! That's right - a true analogue superhero - and we were curious to find out a little about her path to this prominent position in the community.

Black Friday: Film Photography Deals at Analogue Wonderland!

Nov 22, 2018

A couple of weeks ago we asked the community what they'd like us to do for Black Friday 2018 and the answers fell into two broad camps:

Mystery box! With rare/expired/random films as a bit of fun to try new things
Bulk deals for people who frequently buy the same stocks to get consistent results and would appreciate some help in making that more affordable in the build-up to Christmas

Rather than choose between these two great ideas, we've decided to do both! Learn more by reading the full blog.

The Launch of Jelly Film - The Newest 35mm from Dubble!

Oct 31, 2018

Happy Birthday Dubble Film! We are thrilled to announce the latest in the Dubble Film range - a gorgeous colourful emulsion that will sweep your images in hues from across the rainbow. For this special extended Birthday Blog we will spend a bit of time asking Adam about the Dubble Film journey so far as well as the inspiration for the new film. Enjoy!

Bubblegum 35mm Film - Dubble's Sweetest Film So Far!

Oct 30, 2018

The final regular interview covering Dubble's current (!) range, we talk to Adam about Bubblegum. This film was introduced to the world in March 2018, at the same time as Monsoon and 6 months into the Dubble journey. A very different look and feel to all of the emulsions that went before, let's understand what inspired these sweet tints and colours.

Monsoon 35mm Film - Looking Back at Dubble's First Range Expansion

Oct 29, 2018

It was approximately 6 months into their first year of existence and Dubble Films had already built a great reputation for consistent and interesting creative films. But they weren't satisfied with 'just' their first two emulsions: Sunstroke and Moonstruck. Instead they wanted to continue pushing the boundaries with new and more complex tints to help film photographers create cracking images. And so two new films were conceived, developed and released into the world. Let's start with Monsoon.

Moonstruck 35mm Dubble Film - The Birthday Celebrations Continue

Oct 28, 2018

We return to our conversations with Adam from Dubble to discuss the second emulsion that he created: Moonstruck 35mm. This was released at the same time as Sunstroke on the 31st October 2017 (read yesterday's article all about Sunstroke here) so is coming up to it's 1 year birthday along with the Dubble Film company itself. A very different film to Sunstroke, let's explore where it came from.

How to Refer Friends a.k.a. Free Film for Everyone!

That is thousands of Points that film photographer will be able to redeem against free film, accessories and clothing in our store - as a thank you for being loyal Analogue Wonderland customers.
