It all started with a simple point and shoot 35mm Kodak camera and a half-hearted interest in photography in 1992.

I wanted the camera for two big summer trips. Little did I know, photography would quickly become a passion.

On the very first trip with my new camera, I ran out of film and had to go buy more. From that point on, I was hooked!

That simple Kodak camera no longer works, but has a place on my bookshelf.

Since that time, many cameras and lenses have joined the collection and many rolls of film were shot before venturing into the digital world in 2004.
