Multiple Exposures of Nicole Truax
Wanted to shoot a few experimental medium format tintypes. Really excited with how they came out. Three 380ws strobes with 40 bursts at full power. Can’t wait to try out some of these with the mammoth plates! These are mounted on 6×6 slabs of Padauk Wood.
Memento Mori: Insects
For this project we are creating small abstract tintypes of insect specimens by creating an extremely shallow depth of field by shooting through an 8x magnifying loupe.

Execution Project: Francesco Fragomeni
We finally got to meet and photograph Francesco. Francesco is the talented alternative process artist who loaned us the 24×20 camera that made our large format in camera ambrotypes possible. The three of us immediately hit it off, and spent about 10 hours together prepping, shooting, varnishing, cleaning up, and grabbing a long needed meal
Execution Project: John Flynn
Some of you may remember John from the original Execution/kickstarter video, or have listened to his band The Morning On Fire He’s been a good friend for a long time and we immediately thought of featuring him for the project. We had taken this shot of him for his album last year, and ran with
From IPhone to Ambrotype: Evolution Of An Idea
After being greeted by 55 mph winds at Horeshoe Bend and getting one of our vehicles stuck axel deep in the Bonneville Salt Flats we only had one last chance to test out the Mammoth Camera, our hardware, and chemicals before returning home to continue the Execution Project. We had toyed with the idea of
