Non-digital/manual photographers

May 16th, 2012
Hi all
I have started a photography course and part of my assignment is to find a non-digital/manual photographer and compare his/her photos with a digital photographer. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any sites/photographers that use film?. Ive tried searching on Google but haven't really come up with what im after no sites ive looked at say if they use digital or film.
Thanks

Are you looking for any digital or film photographer or specifically one who is famous and/or makes their living from photography?

thanks all, i have a look at those links :)
I'm looking for either famous photographer or a photographer who dose it for a living. I have to find a website of a photographer who uses film so i can look at their work and basically describe how i feel film images compare to digital. I have to include the website with my assignment.

Jonathan Canlas: http://canlasphotography.blogspot.com/
Shawn Hoke: http://www.shawnhoke.com

Both are current professional photogs who shoot on film. Canlas, in particular, is quite well known. If it was my assignment, I'd go with him.

What both @beautifulthing and @grizzlysghost said. I would also like to add Kurt Sadjina, whilst he is not a professional he is an amazing photographer and a bloody nice chap as well.
