Nostalgic Film Recipes

Film Recipes with a Nostalgic Look

One of the reasons I decided to shoot with Fujifilm was the nostalgic film simulations and the ability to further tune these to give a wide variety of nostalgic looks. I love photos with warm colour tones and lifted shadows, and so this is one of the larger categories of film recipe on this site.

Retro themed recipes make up a big proportion of this site, so the choice is varied and plentiful. To get started, I’d suggest Vintage Kodachrome, Restore from Backup and Nostalgic Standard, which are three of my favourties.

Embrace a film-like look and join in with the Film Recipes Challenge 📸 Take photos with the Flatpack film recipe, and share them in the Film Recipes Facebook Group or the comments on the recipe page. This recipe is based on film prints in a matte low contrast style. Join in from where you live with a deadline of end of 29th March. #flatpack 👍
