Studio Sessions
Before You Book
Tintype portraits are created using the historic wet plate collodion process. This is a hands-on, chemical process that produces one-of-a-kind images with natural variation.
Please note the following before booking:
I open a limited number of studio days each month for portrait sessions. Sessions are available only on the dates shown in the booking calendar. If those dates are fully booked, please join the waitlist or watch for the next session release.
Up to 4 faces may be included in a single tintype. Two faces are included in the base price, with additional faces at $15 each. More subjects result in smaller detail, and larger plate sizes are recommended for groups.
I re-shoot plates at no charge for technical issues such as blinks or chemical failures. Optional aesthetic re-shoots are available for a $20 chemical fee.
Wet plate portraits may include chemical marks, soft focus, dust, or particles. These are inherent to the process and part of the final image.
A 50% deposit is required to reserve your session. You may cancel or reschedule your appointment through the confirmation link up to 48 hours before your session. After that time, the deposit is retained..
