Discover the timeless art of tintype photography — a living connection to history, handcrafted with soul and precision.
Why choose tintype?
Authenticity: Each tintype is a one-of-a-kind metallic photograph created through a 19th-century wet plate collodion process. No prints, no digital replicas — just an original image that cannot be duplicated.
Tangible Heirlooms: These durable metal plates age gracefully. They become family artifacts passed through generations, carrying stories and character that digital files never can.
Distinctive Aesthetic: Rich silvers, deep contrasts, and the subtle imperfections of handcrafted chemistry give every portrait a cinematic, antique presence ideal for weddings, portraiture, brand imagery, and commemorative sessions.
Slow, Intentional Experience: The tintype session is a moment of ceremony. It invites your subjects to slow down, to present themselves fully — producing portraits that feel intimate, deliberate, and unforgettable.
Expert Craftsmanship: At Shot Rite Photography, founder J.R. Nolan mastered the tintype process out of passion and dedication. Each plate is prepared, exposed, and developed by hand in a controlled studio environment, ensuring archival quality and artistic integrity.
