Gallery: Instant Family Tree

4

Capturing a moment on film and seeing it develop in real time is an experience that will almost always elicit a great wave of excitement. With instant film being one of the few film formats to make this process possible, this time is truly made all the more special when shared with family and loved ones.

In this gallery, we’ve selected photos that have all been taken on various Lomography Instant Cameras — from mini, square, and wide — further emphasizing the nostalgic, tangible, and memorabilia factor the film format can bring into one’s life. Similar to a memory you can keep safely in your pocket, your bedside table, or your family heirloom photo book that’s meant to be treasured and stored well for years to come.

The Lomography Instant family tree has a unique camera for every occasion. Whether that's for birthdays, personal milestones, family gatherings, summer holidays, or more, there’s an instant camera suited to help you capture those memories on film.

For example, the triptych of photos below shot on the Diana Instant Square camera paired with a 20 mm Fisheye Lens and a flash-colored gel, adds character and a neon-lit personality to a birthday celebration.
