Wetplate Tintype Workshop July 3-5, 2025

Price range: $475.00 through $1,475.00

Join Dana Sullivan and Rob Gibson in one of our amazing Wetplate Tintype workshops. Workshop participants will work with our fabulous Indigenous models: Juana Olivas, Serpentina and Adam Joaquin, for a true southwest experience! Students are invited to bring their friends or family for a day of personal portrait work.

Learn the how to chase the sun, setting up shots in difficult outdoor lighting situations. Students can also use our indoor studio to work with strobes and continuous lighting.

We supply all cameras (4×5, 5×7 and 8×10), tripods and supplies. Students are also encouraged to bring their own camera, if they please. We provide daily lunches, snacks, coffee and drinks so students stay hydrated and well fed!
Here’s a cool video of one of our workshops participants doing a long exposure, and then developing the plate in the darkroom:
