Bio

Film is my favourite medium. I shoot film mostly with toy cameras (Holga, Diana, Brownie Hawkeye Flash) and twin lens reflex cameras (Yashica Mat LM, Rolleicord). I like the unexpected results I get from toy cameras and the sharp results from twin lens reflex cameras. I find it easier to compose a shot in a square than in a rectangle and that's the reason I prefer medium format film to 35mm film.

As much as I love film photography, I shoot mostly with a Canon digital SLR because I can't afford to shoot film as much as I'd like to. I like the instant gratification I get from shooting with digital cameras and toying with the results in Photoshop.
