Remember this vintage camera? It’s a Bauer C1M Super-8mm film camera produced from 1968 to 1971.

We finally got to test it out for a promotional film we did recently for Seattle wedding photographers Vlad & Irina of Voir Photography. We started early on a Monday after a long Sunday wedding, but the shoot was full of energy. All we knew when we showed up was that Vlad and Irina and their assistants, Solomiya and Pavlo, would be shooting two couples in after-wedding sessions. We knew they wanted shots of them hard at work and of their beautiful couples. Oh, and a timelapse of them getting set-up. Thanks to their careful planning (and a lot of great props) this film turned out to be a ton of fun!
As for our Super-8mm camera? This shoot proves that “it’s not a toy.” It actually gave us some pretty awesome footage that perfectly fit Voir Photography’s vintage style.

Thanks to Voir Photography for getting a couple shots of Alex hard at work (don’t worry, I was there shooting somewhere too).

Just for the record (if it wasn’t clear from this film), Vlad and Irina are AMAZING photographers. If you’re interested in checking out their work, I encourage you to make an appointment and check out their prints and albums. Just stunning!
