My story with film is kind of different because I started with photography because my father was a photo buff. He had all sort of cameras, and I grew up with that.

I always liked photography in film - I studied photography growing up. I like the medium of film; I like physically holding 35-mm film. I like the way it looks, the quality when it's projected. I like the way it frames real life.
