Super 8 Film
Why Super 8?
Super 8 film brings a beautiful, nostalgic quality that’s impossible to replicate with digital video. It captures your day in a way that feels timeless, romantic, and cinematic — almost like watching a vintage home movie, but elevated. Every frame has a soft, organic texture that makes the moments feel more emotional and real.
Because of its unique look and feel, Super 8 pairs beautifully with your traditional photo and video coverage, giving you an entirely different way to relive your memories. It’s especially great for candid moments, movement, and emotion — first looks, dances, laughter, small gestures — all captured in an artful, storytelling way.
Adding Super 8 to your wedding coverage gives you a piece of your day that feels deeply personal and truly one-of-a-kind — a family heirloom you’ll cherish for generations.
FAQs
1. What is Super 8 film?
Super 8 is a vintage 8mm film format that was popular in the 1960s-80s. It’s known for its nostalgic, grainy look and warm tones—perfect for couples who want a romantic, timeless feel to their wedding video.
2. How is Super 8 different from regular video?
Unlike digital video, Super 8 is shot on actual film, giving it a unique, cinematic texture. It doesn’t capture audio, so your final video is usually set to music and may include voiceovers or ambient sound recorded separately.

Most Super 8 wedding films are about 2.5 to 5 minutes long, depending on how much footage is captured and how many rolls of film are used.

Yes! Although it’s shot on film, we scan and professionally digitize your footage. You’ll receive a high-resolution digital file you can watch and share online.
5. How many hours of coverage does one roll of Super 8 provide?
One roll captures about 2.5 minutes of footage. Most weddings use 3–5 rolls for a full story.
6. When will we receive our film?

7. Can we choose the music for the film?
Yes! We’ll work with you to choose music that fits your vibe and works well with the aesthetic of the footage.
