In partnership with the Auckland Festival of Photography, I’ll be taking my mobile darkroom (a 1950's Bond-wood caravan) to Highwic to craft timeless portraits using the wet plate collodion process, a 19th-century method of development that predates film photography. Each image is hand-crafted, producing an original direct-positive image on a sheet of glass or aluminium plate.
The plates will be posted to clients once varnished & cured, a week or so after the session. Sessions last 45 minutes and are limited to 2 people per plate
Sessions are limited so please book early to avoid disappointment.
Price: $150.00
On view, will also be my exhibition Tinkering About, a series of wet plate collodion images captured recently in Australia and New Zealand.
