I had the pleasure of meeting @bretterick on my summer road trip and let me tell you we had a blast in his studio! He shot these amazing wetplate portraits of yours truly and I also got to play around with some expired peel apart Polaroid film - granted, we were still figuring out the exposure and using just a lens cap for a shutter on more modern film renders a more "experimental" image 😂.
He took this footage in his studio and I compiled a clip show for y'all to enjoy! Thanks again Brett for the hang and for the wonderful wetplates. If you don't know of his work, I highly recommend you check him out, especially if you live near the Salt Lake Cify area!

Thanks for standing in for the polaroid and tolerating our shenanigans @willitcoke / @beerded_viking_geek
Also, R.I.P Dale Gribble.. Err.. Rusty Shackleford 👻

Premier day for @lawmenbassreeves ! I traveled to the wild west back in April and used my skills and got my hands "dirty" along side many other fantastic people and talented wetplaters to assist in creating a series of tintypes for the show! I was glad I was brought back on Sarah's team again since 1883 for this extensive project :
@_sarahcoulter@rodeotintype@actual_sam_dole@holliday_tintype@josephwymanphoto
So much work went into creating these and Sarah did an amazing job capturing the actors perfectly with this historic photographic medium! I can't count how many were shot that day but we did so many more this time around. I can't wait to get into this series! 🤠
Ps. I can't get over the shots of Lauren E. Banks (last slide) ❤️📸 @laurenebanks

HOLY SCHNIKES! I can't believe it's been two years this month, it's honestly felt like a hundred since then! This is a collection of BTS videos and pictures I took on the set of making the title sequence tintypes from the television series "1883." I was brought on to help @_sarahcoulter work her magic behind the lens as one of the tintype photographers on her team. Also part of this crew:
@rodeotintype@josephwymanphoto@actual_sam_dole@ellenwishart
We made quite the ass kicking wetplate team to punch out as many ambrotypes and tintypes as we did that day. Much so, that @rodeotintype deemed us as "The Weatherford Texas Tintype Commission" haha. I've also included some cool shots of crew members and stand-ins on set as well so if you see yourself, feel free to tag or let me know and I'll tag you!

I'm just glad I got everyone to take my spectacles for a spin! 🤓
I still think of this like it were yesterday.
It goes to show you that time really does fly. 📸

This was one of those times when the darkroom was too hot (and light leaks all around) and the chemistry was too questionable.. I still pulled this portrait despite the circumstances 😅 and I love me a good hat! 🤠

I love it when visitors from outside Texas stop by and step in the light for a wetplate portrait. 🤠

A beautiful 5x7 portrait of this stunning woman... A portrait by me was on her Christmas list and I made it happen, I was so honored actually 😊 ❤️. She was giving me Catherine Zeta-Jones vibes! 🔥 🔥 🔥
