Lost Postcard Club
Some moments
feel like a
postcard you
were meant
to find.
A quiet collection of photographs from backstreets, in-between places, and passing journeys — sent in by strangers, and kept here to be found again.
Mostly 35mm film. Digital welcome too. Always credited to the person who made it.
Lately added to the collection.

worth finding again,

Every photograph here was made by someone, somewhere, and shared with the club. Rest on a postcard to read where it was taken, when, and on what.
Field Notes
Occasional writing on film, on places, and on the people behind the postcards. Unhurried, like the rest of this.
The journal is only just beginning — more notes will arrive in their own time.
The Shop
One day soon, a few things to keep. Prints are made from my own photographs — never the submissions. Everything else is for fellow film enthusiasts.
The shop will open alongside our Etsy. Until then, here's what you'll find on the shelves.
About
There's a word — sonder — for the moment you realise every stranger is living a life as vivid as your own.
Lost Postcard Club is a small archive built around that feeling. A silhouette down a backstreet, a window on a slow afternoon, a place you only passed through — the kind of moment that feels like a postcard someone wrote, sent, misplaced, and that you've somehow found years later.
We call these photographs postcards. Members — really just followers, and people who love film — send them in, and we keep them together in one quiet, growing collection. Mostly 35mm, though digital is just as welcome.
No algorithm to please, nothing to sell you here. Just a place to feel a little nostalgia, a little wanderlust, and a quiet sense of connection to people you'll never meet.
Find the moment
A backstreet, an in-between place, a passing journey. The quiet ones tend to last longest.
Send it in
One photograph or several, with a short note on where it was taken and the memory behind it.
It's found
We add it to the archive and share it on Instagram, credited to you, so others can find it too.
The photograph stays yours. Always.
We never claim ownership of anything you share. By submitting, you're simply giving us permission to show your photograph in this gallery and on our Instagram — and we'll credit you every single time.
