Studio
One-on-one private sessions in my studio in Kingston, WA, accessible from Seattle (see below).
Images are made through a series of exposures using the wet-plate collodion process of silver on metal or glass. Studio sessions allow time for adjustment, variation, and multiple takes as we work toward a final image.
Sessions typically last between 90 minutes and several hours, depending on the number and size of plates being made.
Finished plates are provided along with a high-resolution scan of each image.
4x5" — one plate $250 / two plates $350 / three plates $450
5x7" — one plate $300 / two plates $450
8x10" — one plate $450
TIntypes are the standard format, ambrotypes available upon request.

Getting Here
You can walk to my Kingston studio from downtown Seattle via the walk-on ferry.
The studio is a 6-minute walk from the moment you step off the boat, just beyond the ferry terminal. It's close to restaurants, cafes, and Saltair Beach.
You can see the studio from the water as the ferry arrives.
The walk-on ferry does not run on Sundays.
For quick, single-exposure sittings, see upcoming event days below.
On-location & Special Events
I’ll bring my camera, mobile darkroom, and chemistry to your location, and we'll create together there.
These can be one-on-one creative sessions aimed at a small series, on-site staff or faculty portraits, pop-up style events over an afternoon or evening, etc.
Arranged individually and priced according to scope and distance.
