Hello, I'm Elise! I'm an amateur car photographer from Ontario, Canada. My photos are free to use, but credit is appreciated!

About me

edit

I've always had an interest in cars, and started photographing cars at a young age. In 2018 I discovered other Wikimedia photographers such as Mr.choppers, Kevauto, and the esteemed IFCAR, and I was inspired to start uploading my own photos to the site. It's now my goal to document as many obscure, old, interesting, or just plain boring Canadian-market vehicles as possible. I try to stick to photographing cars that are clean, undamaged, and unmodified. When referring to vehicle models, trims, body styles, and colours, I try to use the same nomenclature found in literature from the manufacturer of the vehicle.

My gear

edit

I started taking photos in 2018 with a Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo smartphone, and later I upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy A5 smartphone. Since mid-2020, I've taken the vast majority of my photos with digital cameras, my first camera being a Canon PowerShot G7. In 2021 I upgraded to a Canon PowerShot G10, in 2022 I upgraded again to a Canon PowerShot G16, and in 2024 I upgraded to my current camera which is a Canon PowerShot G5 X. I also occasionally take photos with my current smartphones, a Samsung Galaxy S21 and a Samsung Galaxy S24 FE. I've only ever used smartphones or simple point-and-shoot cameras for my photography without any tripods or accessories.
