question asked more than anything else. Rarely will somebody ask
me about my wedding photography education, awards, or
professional memberships. I believe the root to this question
lies on misinformation about the different qualities of film and
digital.

event and at the end of the day be done with the process. When
the time comes to print the photographs the photo lab will take
care of color balance adjustments and retouching. From a
technical aspect film has a wider dynamic range than digital.
This means than in high contrast scenes film has the edge. It
can handle them better without blowing the highlights.
Digital
The greatest advantage for digital is the control of the
photographic process in the hands of the artist. The

photo that reflects his inspiration and vision.
Digital allows the photographer to shoot more frames without the
expense of film and development, which can translate into a more
complete coverage. After the event the photographer simply edits
out the bad photos and you as the customer end up with the best
selection of the day. The digital medium is ideal for backup.
Multiple copies of the event can simultaneously exist in
different locations in the event of a catastrophe. With film
there is always only one copy of the negatives, which could be
duplicated, but the second copy suffers significant quality
degradation. With digital it is possible to produce different
versions of the same photo including black and white, color,
sepia, etc. through a very simple process.
Digital allows for a faster workflow. If your photographer
offers digital gallery previews your photographs can be
available in a matter of hours for viewing and ordering. In
addition, slide shows and DVDs can be produced for the client.
Digital retouching in the hands of an expert can create amazing
results. Since there is no chemistry involved to develop digital
the digital process is more environmentally friendly.

In terms of resolution both film and digital can produce similar
results. With the advent of 11 mega pixel and above digital
cameras, digital has the edge for enlargements due to its lower
noise levels and the lack of grain. Many purist talk of the film
look, which is basically film grain and noise that gives film
its unique look. This film look can easily be simulated with
digital image processing techniques. Many people would be
surprised to know that most photo labs will scan film prior to
printing. In other words direct film to print is a myth. Digital
photos when printed on true photo paper are virtually
indistinguishable from their film counterparts.
What does the film vs. digital war means to the client? I
believe that when selecting a wedding photographer the client
has to focus on the end product more than anything else. At the
end it doesnt matter if the photographer uses film or digital.
What really counts is the quality of the photographs that he or
she will produce for your wedding day. There are good and bad
photographers using film or digital. Your task as a client is to
weed out the bad ones and select a photographer that will
capture beautiful memories of your wedding day.
