Nicks photography center is a little gem in downtown Troy just waiting to be discovered! We visited expecting to see artistic photography displayed on the walls and yes, we enjoyed great photos but that was only the beginning. The Center is flooded with an array of cameras and projectors that together tell a fascinating history of the photography field. Nick is a wealth of information -- a brilliant man (a statistician!) with a passion and love of photography and collecting in general. The second and third floors, should you dare to venture up the narrow staircases, house stacks and stacks of well organized books, artwork, photographs, and miscellaneous collectibles. If you are lucky, you will also get to meet Dave, Nicks problem-solver. We went for a one hour visit, and stayed for three hours! What a memorable afternoon! Thank you, Nick!
One of the biggest collections of cameras and history of everything photography that Ive seen in a long time. An entire floor dedicated to photography books and all very welcoming. They had a large supply of hard to find flashbulbs for my Graflex gear! They also have gallery shows on the first floor. Located in a great little pocket of Troy with a lot of restaurants in walking distance.
Nick is amazing in his knowledge about different cameras and i could honestly spend hours in here without noticing
