Frames

Frames is an iOS and macOS app that helps film photographers keep track of how they shoot. You can log exposure settings, manage your gear and rolls and later connect your notes with your scans so your archive stays clear and easy to understand.

Frames is an app created for film photographers who want a simple and reliable way to follow their own process. It gives you space to record the details behind each shot, like aperture, shutter speed, metering and anything else you want to remember. You can set up your cameras, lenses, filters and film stocks, which makes it easy to see how each roll was shaped and what gear you used at the time. Once your film is developed, you can bring your scans into Frames and match them with the notes you recorded. The app can write that information back into your files, which helps you keep a clean archive that is searchable and easier to sort through. Over time, this builds a helpful record of how you shoot, what choices you tend to make and how those choices affect your results. Many people use notebooks or loose notes, but those are easy to lose or forget about. Frames keeps everything in one place so you can revisit past rolls and learn from them without digging through scattered documents. Whether you are new to film or have been shooting for years, it gives you a calm and dependable way to stay connected to your work and understand your own habits behind the camera.
