These portrait sessions take place at your home, studio space, or anywhere outside that you would like to make a tintype portrait. Unlike a studio session where we are using a strobe light to capture your portrait, we will use natural light (the sun) to capture these.
These portraits can be taken around your home, artist studio, ranch/farm/garden, your business, etc. Since we will need to rely on natural light in oder to produce these tintypes, these session will be dependent on the weather. Natural light exposure times can range anywhere from 1-10 seconds long. With that being said, small children and pets may show up a little soft/fuzzy since they may not be able to sit still depending on exposure times.
House call sessions include two 4in x 5in tintype portraits and cost $350. The session will take around 2 hours or longer depending on how many tintypes you’d like to make. You will also receive high resolution digital scans of each tintype. If you would like to make more than two portraits during your house call session, please email me after you book so we can discuss additional rates!
If the house call session will be outside of the town of Taos, please email me before booking to discuss additional travel fees.
