Sunday, June 14, Sun and Silver Photo will be doing tintypes at Pleasant View Studio in Germantown. This modeling event requires paid admission – you can see more information on the event’s FaceBook Page. Tintypes are free for participating models. Of course, we gladly accept donations to help with the material and shipping cost for the finished plates. Here is Our Venmo.
Here are some thoughts and notes, in no particular order:
- Below is an appointment form so you can pick out a desired time slot. You can also message me on FaceBook to talk about a time
- I set up 30 minute slots which should be good for 2 tintypes. If you want to go longer let me know and we can adjust the schedule
- Finished tintypes will be available in about a week (they have to be washed and varnished) I’ll need you address to mail them – you can pick up in Neenah too!
- We can do 2-4 people in a group if you want to schedule together – or have 2 adjoining sessions
- The schedule is flexible right now and we can always move things around as we get closer to the day
- Here is my portrait FAQ which gives some information on the process
- Here are our Favorite Portraits of 2025 to give you some ideas! Some of these were taken at Pleasant View last Fall.
- Here is another set of Victorian era Inspiration Tintypes (not ours but thematically images we love)
I will update the schedule here as people sign up. Please feel free to message me on FaceBook or email so we can plan on the most amazing session possible!
