Seize the day — forever! Make memories on metal!
These fun 20 minute pop-up sessions are for 4×5 inch tintypes. Generally, plates are $75 each and there’s room for up to three adults in each image. Finished, varnished and packaged images are mailed within a week, usually for $5, although I can sometimes varnish and deliver right on the spot, too. Dust-corrected, printable digital files available for $20.
