Book a Portrait.
I hand-pour collodion, sensitize in silver, and let sunlight etch the truth onto glass or metal. Wet plate collodion slows me down enough to actually see—to make portraits and landscapes with weight, texture, and permanence. In the video I share what pulls me to this craft and why a single plate can hold more soul than a thousand files. If it resonates, let’s make something that outlives us both.
Step into the world of 19th-century photography and walk away with a portrait that will last for generations. Each wet plate collodion session is a one-of-a-kind experience, where your image is hand-crafted on glass or metal using the same process mastered by photographers over 175 years ago. Availability is limited — secure your place today.
Johnny Zarfati talks about why he wanted a wet plate collodion tintype for his album cover.
