Wet Plate Collodion

  • EBPCO Community Darkroom 412 13th Street Oakland, CA, 94612 United States (map)

WITH JENNY SAMPSON AT THE EBPCO COMMUNITY DARKROOM

Wet Plate Collodion is a photographic process dating back to the 1800’s that involves hand-coating a metal or glass plate with a viscous, salted collodion then submerging it in silver nitrate. While still wet, the sensitized plate is put in the camera, exposed, and processed immediately following exposure. In this one-day workshop, participants will learn the basics of this historical process, using metal plates to create their own one-of-a-kind tintypes. Participants should be familiar with the basics of large format camera operation before registering. All materials for this workshop are provided by EBPCO.
