ABOUT JIM

I’ve retired from a wonderful career in Emergency Medical Services. From a very young age photography has been a very important part of my life. I especially enjoy shooting and teaching film photography as well as restoring and using vintage cameras. I enjoy digital too. 

Much of my photography is done in and around our little historic village called Fort Langley, about 30 minutes from Vancouver British Columbia.  The quaint little village of Fort Langley has a wonderful small town feel as well as amazing scenery along the Fraser River. The area is also rich in history, being the birth place of British Columbia and home to the Fort Langley National Historic Site.

I’ve enjoyed photography most of my life. This is a passion shared with my wife and kids as well. In fact our first home had a single critical requirement, it needed space for a darkroom! I’ve been a photographer for over 45 years. Today I shoot digital and I still love to shoot film with a variety of cameras especially my beloved Leica M6 or the magnificent Hasselblad 500cm medium format camera .. the one that went to the moon. All film processing and printing is done in my own darkroom. I love all aspects of photography but I find great joy helping others discover film photography. Contact me if you have questions.
