Hey all,

I've been watching this forum and using it as a source for information for longer but decided to create a account and get a bit more involved. I hope to learn from others and help others where i can.
I am still quite young (16) and i've been shooting for about 1.5 years, and exclusively shooting analog for about a year. I am a big b&w darkroom enthusiast and have spent this summer building my own darkroom in the basement (it is unreasonably well equipped for a 16 year old hobbyist but building it was good fun too). I am also working in an analog photography store here every week, so i can definitely say i love my job.
All questions are welcome and i look forward to seeing you on here!

Welcome aboard! It's great to have a younger generation join us as well, although I'm happy to notice that the variation in terms of age is already considerable on Photrio. Either way, I'm sure you'll fit right in!

That's great! Having fun while helping others!

Welcome from me as well.
I worked in stores like that a lot in my youth, starting when I was just a couple of years older than you are right now.
And I loved it as well.
We definitely look forward to hearing from you.

Welcome to Photrio! Nice to see a young 'un taking such a keen interest in film photography! I worked with many teens as a (just retired) high school photo teacher. You've come to the right place!
