"I've enjoyed the many years I've worked at Arlington Camera and I am always eager to help you with your shipping and photographic needs."- Eric

Eric McRae has been an Arlington Camera employee for nine years. During this time he has worked in many areas including sales and our lab. Eric is knowledgeable about all of the equipment we offer here at the store and always assists in sales when his shipping duties for the day are completed. In the shipping department he efficiently handles an average of 100 packages per day, and those numbers really soar during peak times of the year. But Eric isn’t just about shipping. He also loves photography, of course! Eric has taken several photography classes at a local college. He has performed extensive work with infrared photography and spent countless hours in the darkroom experimenting with specialty B&W film developers and alternative processes. All of his work is now entirely digital. Eric enjoys photographing nature, wildlife, architecture, environmental portraits and his all time favorite subjects, his children.
