Getting Here

My Kingston studio is accessible  by foot  from downtown Seattle.

​

and returns to Seattle at 2:30pm, 4:10pm,

and 5:55pm ($2). 

​

You can see the studio from the water as the ferry arrives.

Pop-Ups

Experience tintypes in a lively, temporary setting.

 

These are short, on-location portrait sessions, often by appointment.

 

I bring my camera, mobile darkroom, and chemistry, and we create images on the spot.

 

Pop-up sessions typically include one varnished plate and a digital file; pricing varies by event.

If you have a shop or space that you would like to bring the wet-plate process to, let me know!

If you feel drawn to working together, but are unsure where to begin, reach out below. 

I am always open to a phone call to eliminate a lengthy back-and-forth.

Session Type

Now scheduling studio sessions from March '26 onward.

(Who––or what––will be in front of the camera?)

For example:

  • a set of three tintypes for our engagement, one 5x7" portrait together and two 4x5" individual portraits;

  • I'm excited to learn about the process, and want at least two portraits, one tintype for my family and one ambrotype for myself;

  • two 5x7" maternity portraits;

  • one 8x10" ambrotype to record this moment of transition in my life/work

  • I've never done something like this, and don't know where to start. But I'm drawn to this process. What do you recommend?

  • etc!

These require more preparation in advance. Sizes available: 4x5", 5x7", 8x10".

(An image, a feeling, a way of working..)

...or any questions, or things you're curious about.
