Film recipes with a nostalgic, vintage aesthetic rooted in the history of photography.
Nostalgic and vintage recipes draw on a shared set of visual cues — lifted shadows, reduced saturation, warm or slightly faded colour, and a general quality of age that suggests the image was made some time ago rather than today. They appeal to photographers who came to Fujifilm from analogue film or from apps like Hipstamatic or VSCO, where the imperfections of old photography were the point rather than a problem.
The recipes here range from the subtly aged to the deliberately worn-out, but they all share the quality of making the present look like the past.
The list below shows 100 recipes drawn from the site and the Film Recipes App — app-only recipes are included and labelled, giving you a complete picture of what’s available for this look.
