DAVID J FULDE
David J. Fulde is many things. Friend, portrait photographer, bisexual, geek, colorist, and more. When he was a child in small-town Nova Scotia, he found his late-father’s camera hidden away in a closet and since then he has loved making images. He spent a few years in Halifax before making the move to the big city of Toronto. These days he finds himself behind the camera more and more – always trying to learn and improve himself as a photographer.
