Tintype Portraits can be a great addition to events such as: 

-Weddings 

-Family Gatherings 

-Birthday Celebrations

-Anniversaries 

-Holiday Parties 

To book a pop-up, we will need to know:  

  • If there will be access to water and electricity

  • Promotional information for social media posts

Please keep in mind: 

  • Two hours must be available for set up. 

  • Breakdown will take roughly 1 hour. 

  • Walk-ins can be available between scheduled appointments time depending. 

  • Making a tintype takes about 20 minutes, so participants will book one 20-minute time slot for each portrait.

  • Arrangements must be made before the event about returning the plates to the customers. It can take anywhere between 1-4 days to wax and complete them.
