My first film camera was a 110 which was a present when I was 14. But I moved away from film when digital seemed to be the way forward. Then I got back into film photography in December 2017 when I bought my Nikon F2 and I love it. When doing street photography I will always take my Nikon F2 and the 50mm F/1.4 AI-S lens. Ilford's FP4 film is my favourite by far but I do like to experiment.

Tango Dancers, Or the story of how I made a zine

by James HarrisMarch 5, 2023March 4, 2023

On a sunny day in July 2022 while walking through Spitalfields market in London I spied a group of people in the distance. It was then I heard the mellifluous tones I would later come to recognise as music to Tango to. It was, for me at least, a dream come true. I could get […]

Everything changes: An homage to East London’s Brick Lane

by James HarrisOctober 23, 2021October 23, 2021

Selling goods this way — on rickety wooden tables or simply strewn on the floor — won’t be around forever. It’s too old-fashioned. A short walk away shows an inkling of what will happen; Old Spitalfields market has modernized. Restaurants, coffee stalls, and even the odd designer clothing shop line its edges and if you’re […]

Documenting the UK’s #BlackLivesMatter protests: London & Hitchin, June 6-7th 2020

by James HarrisJune 15, 2020July 31, 2021

Across one weekend in early June, I attended and documented two Black Lives Matter protests here in the UK. As a white man, I might not be able to fully understand what black people specifically have gone through as a result of decades of systemic racism but I can listen and learn from their experiences […]

My First Roll… Of self-developed black and white film (Kodak T-Max 100, Nikon F2)

by James HarrisMay 21, 2020August 28, 2021

I’m going to push the definition of this series but bear with me. First, I’d like to say that this was a disaster but also a learning experience. Like all good stories, this one has a bit of a background to it so let’s start with the question, why get into self-developing film at all? […]

5 Frames… With Silberra U400 (EI 1600 / 35mm format / Nikon F2)

by James HarrisJanuary 13, 2020July 31, 2021

As part of my EMULSIVE Secret Santa 2019 present, I got a roll of Silberra U400. Well, this is different, I thought. I had used Silberra film before (their Pan 160 looks very nice, if you’re interested) but not the U400, so I was intrigued. In case you don’t know, Silberra is a Russian company […]

5 Frames… With CineStill 50D (EI 50 / 35mm format / Nikon F2)

by James HarrisAugust 22, 2019July 31, 2021

Whenever I go out shooting with film, which seems to be a lot these days, I take my trusty Nikon F2 and the 50mm F/1.4 AI-S. Can I just say that this camera is a bit of a beast?

Travelogue: Following in Vivian Maier’s footsteps, my trip to Chicago

by James HarrisMay 30, 2019July 31, 2021

Traditionally when I go away on holiday, I tend to pick the less touristy places. That way I can get a better feel for a country and its people.
