The making of a tintype photo. This photo is of an air plant we have named Tilly.

We use the process of wet-plate collodion to create images.
Wet-plate collodion makes Tintype photos. This process was started in the early 1850's. We use the same chemistry and style of equipment that was used originally. We make our own camera, and as much of the equipment we can.

Welcome to our adventure!

We are Brian and Whitney! This is a channel about a soon to be married couple who are building their small business & learning a lot along the way.

We are van-dwelling, semi-nomadic, wet-plate photographers. We currently have a studio location in Skagway, Alaska for the summer cruise ship season from April to October. We will be traveling in the lower 48 for the winters doing pop ups in various places. We travel; visiting national & state parks, cities, water falls and historic sites documenting with photos & videos.

Join our venture of the historical process of Wet-plate Collodion Photography, the occasional print-making, and relationships along the way.
