Brian Brooks says he is always carrying "too many cameras", but that seems to be just the right number for him. Brian photographs with many formats, film as well as digital, and he is one of the preeminent Polaroid artists in the US. Brian also wears many hats: in addition to being a dedicated father and committed artist, Brian is co-owner of Underdog Film Lab, founder of the SF Instant Camera Walk ( now in its 10th year), founder of PolaconSF, and a founding member (and now Board Member) of the East Bay Photo Collective.
