Good Rule of Thumb

35mm carries movement. 120 slows everything down beautifully.

For weddings and events, 35mm usually does the heavy lifting because it is faster and has more frames per roll. For portraits, engagements, maternity, graduations, and quiet wedding portraits, 120 medium format adds a polished, heirloom feel.
