Witness the alchemy of wet plate photography
Unique handcrafted portraits on glass and metal
In a world dominated by fleeting digital moments, we create lasting memories—tangible, captivating, and timeless. Our one-of-a-kind portraits are made using the historic Wet Plate Collodion process, the same technique used starting in the 1850s.
Each piece is a handcrafted original, meticulously created on glass (ambrotype) or metal (ferrotype/tintype). This is not mass-produced—it’s a personal work of art, meant to be cherished for a lifetime.
Experience the magic of analog photography—where every portrait is an adventure, and a fleeting moment is transformed into something eternal.
