A few years ago I got inspired by a documentary about Sally Mann.
I was touched by the wonderful look of the collodion pictures she showed.
I am into collodion photography, also known as "wetplate photography", for a few years now.

This Blog is to share the wonderful, unique and challenging photographic process.

My little friend again, Samy.

Today my little friend (my nephew) visited us. Ofcourse he wanted to be a sitter again.
Is very interested in the whole proces and the first thing he always asks when he's bringing a visit : "are we going to make plates ?"

He's a perfect sitter. Only 8 years old, tiny but very intelligent.
I had to stock the chair with a box and a pillow, otherwise he's to small for the head stand......
I still can't believe how collodion can change someones "look"
