“Alex at work” black aluminum 9 cm x 12 cm tintype
black aluminum 6 cm x 6 cm tintype
We adjusted an old SLR for the medallion size tintype and a Seagull for the 6 x 6. We love the small ones, although the camera’s are less impressive and we’d like to try ultra format size too one day :)

In between the two day hang-out in Amersfoort we drove back to Amsterdam to enjoy some tintyping in the middle of the night at Starbikes, one of the spots where Nuit Blanche was held. The ladies ‘Van de Wijs’ came up with a Parisian ‘Bicycle Boudoir’. It was quite windy, we broke a few lightbulbs, but besides that it was an awesome evening with nice guests and gladly enough Club Mate, to keep us awake. Around 3 o’clock we left, knowing that within a few hours we’d be on our way back to Amersfoort again.

While Luther & Peter were making ultra large format ambrotypes and Alex medium size plates (some nice ones of us!), we completed this weekend with the tiny medallion size tintypes. Good weather, nice live music and all in a beautiful garden (with wild strawberries!)
Alex Timmermans has a nice impression on his blog, so check it out, too!

The weekend of the 26th and 27th of May the Tintype Studio was present at a small festival in beautiful Groenekan where we made tiny tintypes to be worn as jewels! It was hard work, and we are sorry for all the people who couldn’t be ‘tintyped’ because of the huge waiting list. Our spot was marvellous: in the shadow of a big big… no a really big tree, view over the stream behind the garden and accompanied by fantastic people.
For us a great opportunity to test our mobile darkbox! Now we can make the definite design for the real thing… and hopefully produce it for the use at more festivals and parties.
