A trend that’ll never die out – the iconic polaroid – treasured by many for its instantly printed memories. In the past two decades, with the rise of digital cameras and everything ending up online, physical copies of photographs became a rare sighting. And so polaroid cameras, and now their printer cousins, are booming as the demand for instant, tangible (gratification) memories is making a big comeback.
Polaroid is known as a trusted and reputable company that produces quality instant cameras, printers and film. They were founded in 1937 and recognised as the trendsetter for instant films. As there are only a few films available in each pack, every shot counts, making you more intentional. It’s as if your films become more valuable and leave you with a nostalgic feeling when looking back at them later.

- Are you interested in a modern or classic look?
