La Fille Renne is a rising star of the analogue photography community. In the last few years she’s created a real following with her intimate portraits and fine-art nudes, all of them shot on film.
She was one of the first to order Kosmo Foto Mono back when it was announced in July. She very kindly sent images from the first two films she shot. It’s great to be able to feature her as a Kosmonaut.
How long have you been shooting film?
I’m shooting film again since 2012.
What cameras do you shoot on?
A LOT ! It depends on the results I want to achieve. My favourite to shoot are Canon AE-1 Program, Seagull 4B, LOMO LC-A+ and Polaroid SX-70 Alpha.
What other films do you like using?
I like to test everything, but my favourite are Kodak ColorPlus 200, Portra, LOMOgraphy films and tons of Kodak and Fujifilm reversal films (Kodak Ektachrome <3).
What are your thoughts about Kosmo Foto Mono?
I really like it, the contrast is deep and the grain is really fine.
What films would you like to see on the market (old films or new ones)?
Infrared colour and Ektachrome ones.

I'm a New Zealander who has been living in London since the mid-1990s, shooting film seriously since the year 2000. Kosmo Foto was launched in 2012 and has since become a film brand, with the release of my first films Kosmo Foto Mono 35mm (2017) and Kosmo Foto Mono 120 (2019).
I’m doing everything I can to promote film photography in the 21st Century, and help it survive and thrive. If you want to write something for Kosmo Foto, please drop me a line at foto.dowling@gmail.com.
