Balance Like many photographers these days, I balance a busy day job alongside a family life. I try to be good a community member, share my thoughts and experiences and sometimes, perhaps, inspire one or two. In the background I have long held an aspiration to become a successful professional photographer, something i'm still working towards. Like all of us I suspect, finding something to focus on, photographically, can be a challenge when life is so busy. The majority of my casual photography currently...

I don't think it will be long before we need to change the title of this series! We really hope that you are enjoying finding out more about some of the members of our community. This week, for our 11th interview, we have Simon King. He is probably best know for is street photography and teaches short course on it at UAL. SECTION 1 - THE BEGINNING SHARE YOUR FAVOURITE IMAGE / PRINT SHOT ON ILFORD FILM AND TELL US WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU? I really find it difficult choosing favourites, so I have to give a bi...

When we set you this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites theme of #nighttime we were expecting the majority of the images to be on our faster films, however, we were pleasantly surprised by the amount of you choosing to shoot some of our slower speed films in low light conditions too. @JohnScarbro1 Junction Box. @ILFORDPhoto FP4+ Minolta 505si #believeinfilm #filmphotography #blackandwhitephotography #analogphotography #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites #nighttime #ishootfilm charlotte_gilliatt My fav...

We are all familiar with the more 'standard' films in our range such as our PLUS and DELTA PROFESSIONAL brands. However, some of our films are a little bit different from the  norm, and these #specialistfilm shots are what we asked you to share for today's  #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites.   samduncan156 A peach and a nectarine on Ilford Ortho. #ilfordortho #fridayfavourites #specialistfilm #parallaxshootsilfordortho80 #homedevelopedfilm #ilfotecddx #stilllife #mamiyarb67 #mediumformatfilm #bn...

My dream camera I was introduced into photography when I was just a teenager by my uncle Massimo —· AKA zio Max. That’s how I have acquired basic knowledge about film photography, and developed the skills that helped me to start a career as an independent —  and self-taught — filmmaker. Filmmaking and video production became my main occupation, while photography remained a deep passion, which kept coming back from time to time in my professional career. In the last few years I have been too...

Although we love setting you themes each week for #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites we also really enjoy giving you the freedom to share whatever images you have shot on our film with a theme free week now and then. @MrRobertTimothyHere's my #Ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites trio - behind the scenes. From an editorial shoot with Charlie, the bloke from the Guess jeans ads. I go through the negs and we mark (on the sleeve) which to scan. Then clean up, crop and final tweaks. #ilforddelta400   kunis...

In our 14th and possibly final Lockdown Session (before we move to a new format), we are bringing you Kit Young who was nominated by Ashley Carr back in week 9. We've followed Kit for a while on Instagram. He's a fantastic darkroom printer and is always happy to share how get gets to the finished prints from his negatives. SECTION 1 - THE BEGINNING SHARE YOUR FAVOURITE IMAGE / PRINT SHOT ON ILFORD FILM AND TELL US WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU? There are a lot, so I’ll pick this relatively recent print o...

Summer of Photograms My end goal with my photography, at least for as long as I can remember, was to make darkroom prints. I love the thought processes in darkroom printing, the excitement when I manage to find the combination of burning, dodging and other printing techniques that turns my imagined image into a print that I can share. Preferring the tactile nature of darkroom craft, I never cottoned on to digital photo processing or printing. Then in the spring of 2019 I developed a long term illness th...

When we saw that Kit Young had chosen Tyler as his nomination it definitely made us smile. We've shared several of Tyler's IG images in the past and enjoy browsing his feed when we get the chance. Background Share your favourite image / print shot on ILFORD film and tell us what it means to you? Picking only one is an impossible choice! A favourite of mine is a contact print made from an 8x10 negative using FP4+, Ilford MGFB Glossy paper and selenium toned. I used my Chamonix 810V field camera and the ex...

Earlier this year my go-to black and white film of choice had its priced hiked astronomically, making it an un-affordable option for my daily choice. I set about exploring some different options, which included revisiting HP5 (a film, I must confess heretically that I have never gelled with), pushing FP4 to 400, Foma 400 and 200 pushed, and - the film for this short piece - ILFORD’s XP2. I might not have even reached for a roll of XP2 had I not discovered the experiments of another analogue photogr...
