This is the second tintype portrait Bridget had done at Photobooth, and it’s a stunner. I love how it brought out her beautiful freckles. Look at how razor-sharp the eyes are with everything in the frame immediately behind them just melting out of focus.
This little production shot I took with my iPhone 4s shows photographer Michael Schindler getting all his light modifiers in place before firing off that beautiful 4×5 camera. Now you can see what was responsible for those crazy cool catch lights in Bridget’s eyes!
If you live in or around San Francisco, you’ve got to pay this studio a visit and get yourself immortalized on a steel plate, or at least get some help firing up that old Polaroid camera of yours 😉
total stunner! really, really beautiful!
Seriously the first thing I do when I finally make it to San Francisco, is getting a tintype portrait taken! LOVE THEM. Cory and I were hoping to be able to afford to come down for a mini honeymoon, and have a wedding portrait done on tintype. Looks like that’s going to have to wait for now. Hopefully next year.
Bridget look incredible!
Awww, well you can have an anniversary tintype done then I guess. You guys need a couples session done for sure!
It looks like it would be worth a visit
so gorgeous. i must try this. too stunning not to.
That´s REALLY beautiful! Love the focus on her eyes.
beautiful!
I’m really temped to get mine done.
This portrait truly took my breath away. Man I’d like to get up there to do this.
Wow. Just… WOW. I seriously can’t wait to get my tintype done in May!!! I hope I have time to squeeze that in. It might have to wait for my real SF vacation in September.
Also, can I just say that I’ve been missing your blog posts so much! I was having RSS reader issues on my iPad… But that’s all sorted out now, and it’s good to have you guys and Suki back on my screen. 🙂
Kim! You’re gonna love Photobooth. Hopefully we can bump into you guys when you visit at some point. I still gotta try a bokeh pano!!!
Thanks for the comments everyone! 🙂
