My Parents

I have been shooting collodion for almost two years now, my parents have been following my progress and commenting on my photographs all this time. However I had never been able to show them the process until last week. On a slow day of their visit from France, I dragged them in front of my camera and made the following portraits. I am very happy with the results and glad I could show them what is involved with creating a plate. They both seem to enjoy the experience.

Portraits with vintage lens - bis

A few weeks back, we had family members visiting from out of town. It gave me the opportunity to continue testing a new collodion formula and my no-name petzval lens. Here are the two portraits I made:

I had to do one more photo of Elaiza before the project is over!

Collodion du jour - 273 & 274

I've almost got things under control... but here are a couple collodion photographs I made of Elaiza. I didn't even have to ask her to pose for me, she came to me and explained she had dressed with a black skirt and a white shirt because my collodion images are in B&W. She stated she was ready for her photo shoot. I could only oblige her.

Collodion du jour - 219

Rachel.
I am not sure what happened to this plate. At first I thought Rachel had found a way to let me know she didn't want me to use this photo, but she claims she hasn't touched it. So it seems the scratches are just the results of forgetting the plate on my desk for a few weeks and moving stuff around on top of it. Whatever the reason, I very much like what happened...
