About Us

At Nostalgia 35, we create timeless coastal wall art using authentic 35mm film photography — capturing the raw beauty and stillness of Australia’s iconic shoreline.

Founded by Brisbane-based film photographer Izzac Alves, the brand was born from a love of the ocean, storytelling through film, and those simple moments that make you pause. Every image is shot on 35mm film, giving each piece a nostalgic, organic feel that digital just can’t replicate.

We’re inspired by the mood and rhythm of coastal life — from the soft light of Wategos Beach to the rugged cliffs surrounding Cape Byron. Whether it’s a lone surfer waiting for the next set or a quiet stretch of sand at golden hour, our photographs aim to bottle up the feeling of being by the sea.

But this is more than photography. It’s about sharing something real.
Moments that transport you. Scenes that calm you.
Prints that bring the spirit of the coast into your home.

Each piece is:

  • Captured on film to preserve light, grain, and texture
  • Professionally developed and locally printed on museum-grade cotton rag paper
  • Framed with care, using sustainably sourced timber

We believe your walls should tell a story — one that reminds you of your favourite beach, your quiet morning surf, or the summer holidays that never really leave you.

Enjoy your prints!
