Hi everyone,
I’m Dr. Alin Tolea, the founder of Analogue.Studio. I have a Ph.D. in Astrophysics and come with years of experience building telescopes and astronomical cameras.
I am both a camera maker and photographer, albeit a not very good photographer.
I primarily adapt vintage medium format cameras to modern instant film- Polaroid and Fuji Instax Wide, but I constantly innovate and look at everything I can make.
If you want to up your film game or look for a way to add magic to your digital workflow, there’s really no better way than ad instant film to it, shot through real glass!
Tangible and magical, that’s how people describe the feeling of holding those medium size instant photos in their hands.
Check the Candy Store if you’d like to see what systems I can work with. I constantly add more stuff there.
If what you want is not already there, either email me directly (my first name last name on gmail) or find me on one of the Facebook forums dedicated to instant photography, I may be able to build your instant dreams machine!
I do also shoot medium and large format film, mostly b/w and slides. Photography is made with light and slides do share that special magic. Holding a 4×5 slide in your hands is a feeling that’s really hard to describe.
You can find my some of analogue photography on Instagram where you can also contact me for photography projects.
