MY ANALOGUE JOURNEY:
When I was four, my dad started buying me Fuji disposables every summer vacation, which sparked my journey with photography. He would always put his thumb on the lens, so I banned him from photo-taking pretty quickly. I had a few digital cameras as a kid/pre-teen, but my mom gifted me my first SLR, her old Canon AE-1 P, when I entered high school. I had good enough grades to take an upper-level digital photography course at the local university during my senior year in exchange for high school credits, which taught me Lightroom as well as a ton of technique that would very shortly come in handy. I ended up ditching my dream of med school in exchange for a film degree and, luckily, got into my first choice of university. It's the second-best bachelor film degree program in Canada, but I chose it over the first because, in your first semester, you learned to shoot and develop a short film on Super 16mm using a Bolex H-16 before you even touched a digital camera, and starting in your second year, you had access to RED Scarlet & Scorpios or Arriflex 16 SR2s...Despite the cost, most of us chose film. Nowadays, I completely stopped shooting digital a decade ago and haven’t looked back since. Now, I'm thirty, work in the film industry full time, direct and write my own films (and others' on the side), and shoot and collect analogue cameras as a hobby.

ON THE GO:
Nikon F3 (main) w/ Kodak Portra 400 | Nikon NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4 AI & Nikon 28mm f/2.8 AI-s
Pentax Espio 110 w/ Kodak Gold 200

CURRENTLY SELLING:
- Leica IIIf (red dial) w/ Leica Summicron 5cm f/2, Collapsible (aka Collapsible, Type 1) = m39 screw mount 39mm filters. | Short Description: In excellent condition and shutter still works 100% of the time. Inspected by Leica Canada's last technician in 2016: It just needs new shutter curtains and a CLA, which I can arrange here if you'd prefer. Given the serial number, Summicron might be one that's radioactive...

BUYING:
- Canon Sure Shot (1983) AF35M II for parts.
...but let's be honest, I'm a collector. This is just at the top of the list right now.
