I’ve been into photography ever since I can remember. I come from a family of photographers, none of them pros but all amateur enthusisats. I got the shutter bug from my grand father. He developed his own black and white film. Had lots of Canons and Nikons, plus all the gear!

My uncle was a real enthusiast too, spent all his money on cameras and equipment. I’ve blown a ton of cash on this hobby too. And quite rightly so.

Lucky me, my wife also has been into photography from an early age. She developed her own black and white films, no mean feat because none of her family where into it! So she had to figure it all out her self. She’s smart and beutiful, she modeled too when she was younger.

And now she wants a new camera! She’s been out of the photography game for a long, long time. But you never forget right? So I’m going to buy her something nice. She will not be too happy if I spend too much money either.
