We came across the Pushing Film channel on Youtube and decided to ask Hashem why he loves film so much that he created a channel dedicated to it... We’re so inspired we’re looking for a film camera ourselves to experiment with!

Q: Why is film so popular now?
I think it’s because it’s gone full circle. At one point digital photography was new and cool, and kept improving to a point where it reached a plateau, therefore people who previously shot film found inspiration in going back to it, and a younger audience who’d grown up by then found something that (to them) is “new” and different.
Q: Do you ever get nervous not being able to see the wedding shots until they are developed?
Yes, this why it’s good to shoot “hybrid” by using digital alongside film!
Q: Talk to us about the Youtube channel - how and why did you guys start it?
We started it because we thought “why not!” and there were no Australian based Youtube channels on film photography at the time, and we would always be watching other channels put out great content
