Join us for this exciting day long exploration of modern tintypes and toy cameras with Jill Enfield! We’ll spend the first part of the day learning about tintypes and making plates in the darkroom. These plates, unlike the wet collodion tintype process, can be taken on location and used in the field far from a darkroom. Modern tintypes are very similar to the historic dry plate process; a short lived process introduced by Kodak in the late 1800s as a convenient alternative to wet plate photography.
