Welcome! I'm Colin, owner of Colin's Cameras
Our Story
My journey with Colin’s Cameras began organically. I’ve always enjoyed exploring auctions, which led me to collect fascinating cameras and equipment—so many that we ended up with a “museum room” at home. To manage the collection, I started selling a few items on eBay, and over time, that grew into the business you see today.
After more than 30 years working as a Solutions Architect, in 2026 I’m transitioning to focus fully on Colin’s Cameras. My corporate experience taught me attention to detail and problem-solving, but now I get to apply those skills to something personal: cameras, photography, and family.
Our Approach
Running a family business means I get to put care and attention into every part of Colin’s Cameras. From carefully checking each item before it leaves our hands to making sure orders are packed securely, we treat every customer like they’re part of our family. We're always happy to answer questions, give advice, or help you find the right camera or equipment for your needs. Great service isn’t just a goal, it’s something that we, as a family, take pride in every day.
Photography and Family
Photography has always been part of my life, and it’s something Andrea and I share. She spent years as a Crime Scene Investigator, where her photography skills developed into a lifelong hobby. We met when she saw one of my photographs, and over the years we’ve travelled and photographed wildlife, landscapes, and architecture. Often playfully competing over who could take the better shot.
Andrea lives with a heart condition and multiple sclerosis (MS), which makes some adventures challenging, but we’ve never let that stop us. Colin’s Cameras allows me to continue sharing my passion for photography while keeping our family at the center of everything.
Looking To The Future
Colin’s Cameras isn’t just about selling cameras, it’s about sharing their stories and passing them to people who will love them. I’ll also be sharing our photography and travel adventures soon through a blog, giving a glimpse into our family life and the moments we capture along the way.
