Collodion

Recommended Posts

I'm a photography student at SUNY Purchase and I'm interested in

learning the Collodion process. I'm looking for a photographer or

someone who is knowledgeable of the process that is in NYC to

possibly take the time to teach me the process. Any information

would be a great help.

Thanks!

Sally Mann comes to mind. She talks about it in an interview <a href="http://

www.pbs.org/art21/artists/mann/clip2.html">here</a>. There should be a lot of

other resources out there on the process, but this is just the one that came to me

immediately. Hope this helps a little.

Anna. The book "Coming Into Focus" Edited By Barnier haves a full chapter dedicated to the process (wet plate photography, tintypes and ambrotypes I think).

 

And you can download the online version of a XIXth centuty book here:

The link goes to the Mathew Carey´s book about the wet plate process and other intersting data (lenses, cameras, and other stuff from 1860´s).

 

Cheers
