*Tintypes are a historic, handmade, photographic print and the medium is inherently flawed. I do my best to make a great picture within the time available. Ruined images will be reshot for free. All other reshoots are available at half-price.

WHEN:
Friday, Sept 19th, 4pm - 8pm
Saturday, Sept 20th, 10am - 7pm
WHAT:
Tintypes are a photographic print of pure silver on a sheet of black metal. Each tintype is a unique piece of fine art that last for centuries! Two session types are available:
ONE TINTYPE SESSION • $85
I’ll be making tintype portraits every 15 minutes. Bring your parents, friends, partner, children, coworkers, or whomever. Max. 4 people in one tintype. Or maybe it’s time to get your Halloween promo photos going? Regardless of the reason, I want to invite you to you to create art and have a meaningful experience with me in the studio. 15 minute session.
TRIPTYCH SESSION (set of 3) • $225
Bundle 3 tintypes into one session for $75 each. Bring yourself and two friends for you each to have your own. Or bring your partner for a “yours, mine, and ours” set. Group shots are hard to get right in one shot, this session gives you options. Max. 4 people in one tintype. 50 minute session.
