About Me

Hi! My name is Elaine. I design and handcraft custom instant camera backs for vintage cameras, blending the artistry of the past with the innovations of modern technology. My work is rooted in a passion for science and precision, using cutting-edge tools to enhance the timelessness of vintage cameras. Each back is meticulously designed and assembled by hand, allowing users to experience the unique magic of instant photography with vintage lenses, all while embracing the art of commitment in every shot. I believe in staying true to the craftsmanship of yesterday, allowing others to enjoy the soulful essence of photography—one instant frame at a time.

As a one-woman small business, I take great care in the things I create and ship out from my studio in Honolulu. And I'm always happy to see how photographers have been using these backs!! So, please share and tag me on instagram @jingmountaincameras

You can also find me on Etsy if you prefer to purchase items through those channels.
