HI MAMA! I'M SAM BUFALO
I create photography and film courses for Mothers because I believe:
Every Mother should have the skills to capture precious memories of their family in a way that encapsulates that magical feeling of something remembered fondly.
Because nostalgia can be a rare, fleeting feeling- the warm heart, the softening of the face as you remember people lost but not forgotten.Old film media like Super 8 and VHS have nostalgia wrapped up in every aspect of them, which is why it’s the perfect medium for creating home movies, especially in the age of 8K phone cameras.Because there’s something raw and beautiful in capturing that particular emotion - the ability to make time stand still.
