Equipment and tools of the trade:
I’m all digital, pretty much all of the time. We use Canon DSLRs and lenses, Alpa technical cameras and Phase One medium-format digital backs with Schneider lenses. Profoto lighting, and Apple computers and monitors rounds it all out. Then there's the collection of vintage film cameras. It’s not so much the tools as how you use them, but if you want to talk gear, give me a call.
