Onsite handmade tintype portraits
Watch your wedding portrait emerge on a hand-prepared metal plate.
Original Tin / Kevin Kerr and Jim Petrozzello
Original Tin brings wet-plate portraiture to weddings and private celebrations. Kevin Kerr and Jim Petrozzello make individual photographs on metal, sensitizing, exposing and developing each plate before guests rather than producing digital photo-booth copies.
Current location note / listed area: Brooklyn, New York; onsite event travel by inquiry
Confirm portrait throughput, lighting and chemistry setup, plate sizes, travel and finished-plate delivery. This is a deliberately paced handmade portrait experience; same-day take-home completion is not promised. The two photographers and their studio are one operator here.
