Hi friends. It’s happened. I’ve become a husband. On June 23rd, 2012, I married my best friend Amy in Bristol, RI. With the exception of a very brief shower, we had perfect weather and everything went off without a hitch.
Impossible Project film has been part of this journey since the beginning, from my proposal, which incorporated Impossible film (read the blog post about it HERE) to our Save The Dates (read that blog post HERE), so of course Impossible film had to play a role at the wedding too. I borrowed some Polaroid 600 cameras from work and Impossible’s founder Doc and my manager Anne donated some film, which was incredibly generous.
The cameras and film were a huge hit, as guests passed them around and snapped with abandon. I had a huge stack of prints when the night was through and it took me a while to finish scanning them but here they are. It’s hard to capture exactly how fantastic the day was in photos, but I think these do a pretty good job.
Thanks to everyone who came, thanks to everyone who took photos throughout the night, including friends Liz, Charlotte and George, thanks to my friends and teammates at the Impossible Project and thanks to Amy for choosing me.
So so awesome man. Definitely captured the vibe and joy of the event!
Awesome! It looked to be a hell of a hoorah 🙂 Thanks for sharing Patrick!
So awesome!
[…] we found just the right one. I’ve been eager to share this but wanted to wait until after my instant film wedding photos post went […]
I love it Pat. Very nicely done. Captured your Special Day!
Thanks, Dad!
Congrats on your wedding!!! …so did Impossible sponsor your wedding with free films or ??? I am a professional wedding photographer, but when I offer couples instant photography they’re all scared away because of the price… *boohoo*
Hi Melanie, I work for Impossible, so some of the film was donated. I know the price is somewhat high but it costs a lot to produce this film. We’re still a small company with only 80 or so employees worldwide. Eventually, we hope the cost of film will come down. It will if Impossible continues to do well and sell more film!
Congrats! What a great day. The pics are wonderful. Now if you had some 4×5 or 8×10 instant film…………wow!
Impossible is in the test phase of 8×10 film currently. It should be ready for public release in the Fall. We can’t make 4×5 film. That film was made in Polaroid’s factory in the Boston area, which was closed before we could save it and the machinery was destroyed, sadly.
