Explore the Art of Tintype Photography
A Moment Caught in Silver
Tintype photography invites you to pause. Each portrait I make is crafted using a 19th-century process where light, metal, and chemistry come together to form something both ancient and alive.
Based in Franklin, Tennessee, just outside Nashville, I create images that are as honest as they are enduring. No copies, no filters. Just one image, made to last.

Tintype portraits in Franklin, Tennessee
Every portrait in this gallery is a one-of-a-kind original on metal, made by hand in my studio in Franklin, just outside Nashville. No two plates look the same because no two sessions are the same. The chemistry, the light, even the weather play a role. If you're curious about what a session looks like or what it costs, take a look at my pricing and scheduling page. And if you have questions about the process, my FAQ covers the details.
