Tim Christensen — Tintype Sessions

Illustrative editorial artwork, not a vendor photograph
Editorial illustration · not a vendor photograph

Tim Christensen invites inquiries for event and on-location tintype portraits. Each exposure produces an individual physical plate rather than a standard digital print, with small-group composition limited by plate size. The personal portrait can become a keepsake; scanning and commercial reproduction are separate arrangements.

Direct inquiry, not confirmed dates or a guaranteed home-studio appointment.

Handmade tonal and surface variations are part of the process; no permanence guarantee or guest chemical handling.
