I finally got around to asking Kari if I could try making a tintype, and she was happy to let me have a go at it. Some friends from Ohio University were in town, so I made them sit for a portrait session.

Here it is, my very first tintype! Claire, Charles, and Thor. Six second exposure, and even Thor sat perfectly still!

Huge special thanks to Kari Wehrs for teaching me how to do this really cool process!
