Michael A. Smith and Paula Chamlee
The "Keepers of Azo", they are one of the last autorized dealers of Azo paper, but most of all they are a dedicated photographic pair,
working in LF and ULF (including a 8x20 Deardorff and a 18x22 Empire State). They are true to traditional methods, using Kodak XX film processed
in Pyro and printing
on Azo paper exclusively. Their photographs show a level of craft few photogrphers achieve. |

Tracy Storer
Tracy is Director of the Polaroid 20x24 Studio West, one of the few rental studios where anyone can come to make photographs with these cameras.
(The Wisner systems mentioned in another link are mainly in private use.)
This camera was one of Polaroids’ prototypes, with a new front end by Wisner, and modifications by Tracy.
Also check out his personal website:
"While continuing to operate the 20x24 camera for my clients, I’ve been making a real effort
to create work of my own again, using large and ultra-large cameras as well as smaller formats." |

Patrick Alt
Patrick Alt works with various cameras, from 8x10 to a very notewhorty Mammoth Plate camera from the 19th century.
As a painter, he worked on very large canvasses, so large photographic images was a logical steop for him. |

Robert Szabo is part of what you might call the "Wet Plate Revival" movement in the United States that is closely linked
to Civil War re-enactment groups. He works with a mammoth plate camera from the Star Camera Company (see below), and he is tracing the
steps of the first photographers to photograph the US natural parks, Carleton Watkins. |

Emile de Leon
Emile is a dedicated photographer who decided to facilitate the buying experience of ULF photographers : He buys and waits for ULF cameras
from Wisner, and sells them once he has them in stock. Result : If you want a Wisner camera and don't want to wait, you might want to check
with him first, maybe he has it in stock... |
