I am Glenn Christopher — a Naples, Florida photographer and self-proclaimed pseudo-historian with a fascination for the stories hiding in old photographs. I’m also an avid collector of vintage slides, photographs, negatives and other forgotten pieces of visual history.

I’ve scanned and preserved thousands of images from collections spanning decades, and I’ll be sharing discoveries from those archives here over time — forgotten places, everyday life, travel, architecture, automobiles, history and the occasional mystery waiting to be solved.

My digitizing tools include a Nikon CoolScan 5000 ED with SF-210 bulk slide feeder, a CZUR book scanner, and a mirrorless camera-scanning setup built around a Canon EOS R5 Mark II and RF 100mm f/2.8L Macro lens on a Bogen copy stand.
