Upcoming events.
Tintype Popup during Food & Wine in Aspen, CO
Radio Boardshop Tintype Pop-Up · Food & Wine Weekend.
June 19th–20th · Radio Boardshop · Aspen, Colorado
For two days this June, I'll be setting up my wet plate studio at Radio Boardshop in Aspen — bringing one of the oldest photographic processes in existence to the mountains.
Each portrait is made using the wet plate collodion process, the same technique used by photographers in the 1850s. There are no digital files, no prints, no duplicates. What you walk away with is a one-of-a-kind silver original — an alumitype on metal or glass, varnished by hand, and built to outlast everything made after it.
This is heirloom photography in the most literal sense. A single exposure. A single object. Something your family will still have in 150 years.
Appointments are limited. Reserve your session now.
Tanked 2
Join me in Colorado Springs on May 23 for a one-of-a-kind tintype portrait experience at the Tanked 2 event. I’ll be creating handcrafted, wet plate collodion portraits—each image made on metal using a historic photographic process that dates back to the 1800s.
Every portrait is shot, developed, and finished on-site, resulting in a completely unique piece of art you can hold in your hands. No two plates are ever the same—imperfections, textures, and tones all come together to create something timeless and deeply personal.
Step in front of the lens and walk away with a portrait that feels like it was pulled from another era.
