Hi!
I'm Rosie - a passionate 35mm film photographer with a love for travel and capturing life’s raw, unfiltered moments just the way they are. I discovered film photography in my mid-twenties after picking up my first vintage camera on a casual outing with friends. It quickly became a creative obsession.
From the gatherings and parties to the biggest milestones, I have always been the one with a camera in hand, making sure no moment was missed and that passion has only grown with time. There’s a timeless magic in film that digital just can’t replicate - the grain, the unpredictability, and seeing the hands-on process of developing film in a way that feels both technical and creative.
I specialise in travel and lifestyle photography, focusing on candid, authentic moments that highlight the beauty in everyday life. Every frame is crafted with intention - from carefully selecting the perfect film stock to working with manual settings that ensure each shot reflects the moment as truthfully as possible.
I also love capturing special events - from intimate bridal showers and engagements to birthdays and personal milestones. There’s something incredibly meaningful about preserving these memories on film, it adds a nostalgic charm that makes the moments feel even more special.
Balancing roseyefilm on the side with a full-time career hasn’t been easy, but it’s made every step even more meaningful - reminding me that passion can exist alongside routine, and creativity can thrive no matter where you are.
Explore my gallery at your leisure, and feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, are interested in collaborating, or would like to book me for your next event. I’d love to connect!
