Hey there!

I’m Nicola, the person behind FotoStrobo.

My film photography journey began back in 2009 when I got my first film camera, a Chinon XC. Since then, I’ve mostly shot on film and started a photo blog as a long-term project.
I shoot a lot of nightlife and street photography. If you’re curious, you can check it out here.

What draws me to film cameras isn’t just the photography itself, but the cameras as objects, the design, the mechanics, the history. They’re just fascinating little machines.

Running a shop had been on my mind for quite a while. The result was not a physical store, but a webshop.

Part of the reason I started the shop was to dive deeper into analogue photography and camera tech. You don’t really learn this stuff just by reading. You need to work with the gear, open it up, clean it and shoot with it. That’s what this shop lets me do. I also genuinely enjoy giving old cameras some care and getting them back in shape.

If you’re looking for a new film camera or thinking about getting started with analogue photography, I’d be happy to help.

Whether you’re adding to your collection or just starting out, I hope you find something you’ll love.

Thanks a lot for stopping by and feel free to reach out anytime via the contact form or on Instagram/WhatsApp. German or English both work.

Have a great day!
