Description

In this week's episode, we learn that starting down one career path doesn't necessarily mean that's the road you're stuck on. Moving from culinary school to the tattoo shop, tintypist Matthew Stella, decided to give wetplate photography a try when a friend asked him to do "something involving photography" at a tattoo convention. Starting with just the basics, he was able to pick up the art and decided that maybe another career changeup was past due.

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.
