Description

In this season opener of Tin Questions, I've asked my friend Shane Balkowitsch to sit down with me and dig into not only his passion for wetplate, but talk about his natural light studio and photographic gear.  With over a decade of shooting wetplate collodion ambrotypes in Bismarck, North Dakota, Shane and I chat about his experience creating his first plates, his current projects including his ongoing series of images for "Northern Plains Native Americans - A Modern Wetplate Perspective" and other great stories.

Have an interest in modern day wetplate collodion photography? Chad Shryock, tintype artist at Porkpie Photography, sits down with contemporaries in this photographic process that was widely used from 1850 until the 1880s. After spending over 100 years on the back burner, photographers all over the world are getting into sloshing collodion and slinging tin. Each episode will introduce a current practitioner of the process and discuss why they decided to join this growing group of folks, talk about their photographic gear and other insights into the process.
