Stained Glass Instax Film Review

It's almost time to go back to school…which will sadly mean a LOT less time to instax…

But before that happens, I have another film to share with you!

This film is the "Stained Glass Instax Mini Film". And another film that I am in love with! The benefit of this film is that it adds colour and fun without being too in your face, or without a particular theme that you would have -kinda- had to follow. I would suggest this film for more of a casual setting, like indoors joking around with friends, rather than out and about or at an occasion. 

I feel a little strange just putting some of these photos out without really explaining them, so I think in future I will probably talk about the actual photos more and what I could do to improve them.

Stained glass instax mini film

Photos:
1- a little dark but I can't change the Irish weather!

2- Cute, but as photo 1 was printing I think some rain got into the film which caused the white mark.

3- Although in the instruction manual it says that if you are taking an Instax with a reflective surface hold the camera oblique to the surface so that it doesn't catch the flash. This, obviously hasn't proved successful for me yet! (also here in photo 7 in the second set of photos).

4+5- I like how both of these photos turned out, but I could have moved closer to my friend Rebecca because the background is very plain.

6- An attempted selfie, the main problem in this is just that I am too frickin' pale and that I am so white the flash bounces off me a lot… it happens…

7- Honesly I just thought this wall looked cute so I told some of my friends to lean against it and look cool. You might notice that my friend Caoimhe has her own Instax (mini 25) which she got for Christmas and I am currently trying to convince her to maybe write a post on learning to use the Instax Mini 25.

8- This is probably illegible after being scanned in, but the signs read "Happy New Year 2013 - 2014" and two exclamation points as an extra flourish by the 10 year old who wanted everyone to have a sign (she's just too cute). This was taken on the stairs of our family friends and neighbours house, where we usually have the same photo without the signs every year. In future I would have all the lettering filled in in black rather than colour as the flash washes it out too much.

9- On my way to a party with my family on new years eve.

10- I especially love this photo of my best friend Sarah and I after ballet class. It's just adorable and I think the colour of Sarah's leotard pulls in perfectly with the border of the film.

Thanks for reading! <3
