Santa Colour 100

A quick first look at this stock

Less words, more photos

So this is a quick bonus newsletter that will be light on words - which is actually hard for me - and heavy on photos!

Santa Colour were kind enough to send me a 5 pack of their 35mm film stock and I have to say this could be up there on my list of fav film stocks!

I have been hanging onto these images as I will do a full video soon on the channel, but I just love the way they came out and wanted to share with you guys straight to your inbox!

Substack is a really nice way to share photography so I hope you enjoy these shots.

I have added a few to the print shop as part of a new collection so feel free to go over and check that out too! I have a discount code available for newsletter readers - orange35 will get you 35% off any of the shots on the print shop!

Big shout out to Ikigai Film Lab for doing such an incredible job with these scans - I think they had to do some work to get it looking right but even Santa Colour themselves were impressed and commented on the amazing job done. If you haven’t checked out Ikigai be sure to do so via the button below.

The red is unreal!

Costa Taco on Santa Colour 100

By my favorite image of my son I have ever taken! I have entered it into the National Photographic Portrait Prize.

I really like this shot. I love making compositions out of seemingly nothing.

Thanks to all the new people signing up! It’s really cool to see this community growing and more people jumping over to Substack as a platform too.

If you do purchase a print I will email out a copy of my 101 creative strategies guide as well. If you have had your eye on the guide but can’t spare the dollars right now but need some inspo, please get in touch and I’ll get it sent to you!

I just finished up my Friday newsletter which is an interview with an English photographer I am a big fan of. Stay tuned for that and if you haven’t subscribed you can do that via the button below.

Thank guys! Let me know how you rate Santa Colour as a film stock in the comments too.

Love Lucy xx
