A Quick Note About the Process
Tintypes are created live using a 19th-century process. Plates are developed immediately, then allowed to dry fully before being sealed with protective varnish. Guests may choose to wait (typically 1–2 hours) for same-day pickup when possible or finished plates can be mailed within several days. Each finished plate includes one high-resolution archival scan delivered through a private online gallery.
