Photographer, writer, and CPA based in Cardiff, Wales currently running a Youtube channel and Substack newsletter that both go by the name of Eclectachrome. I'm a huge fan of shiny new objects which makes writing news a perfect fit. Favorite cameras are often mechanical rangefinders, folders, and compacts and I love most film stocks. I enjoy developing and scanning my own film as well as printing in the darkroom when there's extra time!
