Private wet-plate tintype portraits
Sit for a portrait made with a historic wet-plate camera process.
Valhall Arts / Laura Cofrin
Laura Cofrin offers appointment-only portraits using wet-plate collodion and historic camera equipment through Valhall Arts. This is a deliberately slow photographic sitting rather than a conventional high-volume party booth. Her owned site identifies the practice with Loveland, and a 2026 Northern Colorado museum exhibition directly links her work to the same studio.
Current location note / listed area: Colorado photography practice; portrait appointments by inquiry
Confirm current portrait-session acceptance, subjects and group configuration, location, lighting, accessibility, date, finishing and collection arrangements directly. No mobile booth, wedding package or guest chemical handling is offered here. Older gallery dates and a separate public pinhole event are not private availability. The website retains older copyright text; the current inquiry route and matching 2026 exhibition establish continuity, not a guaranteed booking. No archival permanence or safety assurance is implied.
