If you are new to film or even if you have been shooting film for years, the Belle Lumiere guide ‘Your Film Journey’ will answer your questions and give you insight into the tools and options you can be using. It’s easy to pick something you know someone else uses but it’s a whole different ballgame to make choices knowing why you’re making those choices. From which film stock to use and why to which camera to use and why. I highly recommend you get this and study it!
My goal is to allow you to skip the guess work that comes along with shooting film and jump right to the "happy" film scan day dance.

How it Works
After reading the whole guide I had the confidence and knowledge I needed to shoot and send in my first roll!
- MARIAH GARRETT
[Your Film Journey] has helped me so much! I have always been really intimidated by film. I didn’t even know where to start. I have always shot digital but I received an EOS 3 as a gift for Christmas and I was dying to use it. I read this guide super fast and I liked that it explained everything from different camera types to dealing with different film labs. After reading the whole guide I had the confidence and knowledge I needed to shoot and send in my first roll!

How long will I have access to this guide?
That is a great question! The guide is broken up into five sections. A camera section, a film section, a metering section, a section on your film lab, and a fun section on double exposures. Each section covers the basic information any photographer would need to start shooting film. From parts of your camera (medium format and 35mm) to film stocks and which ones to use when, to metering. The guide is 80 pages and includes detailed images to help you visual learn to do things like load and unload film.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE GUIDE?
This guide was created to serve a wide range of photographers. From the digital photographer who has never picked up a film camera before. To the photographer who has been shooting film for a little while and feels like they are just not getting it. All the way to the photographer who shot film a long time ago and wants to get back into it. I believe anyone who has questions about film will gain knowledge from this guide.
