Stereo-Tintype captured by friend & fellow wet plate artist, John Hall / Dallas, Tx
JOSEPH WYMAN BROWN
I’m a tintype photographer based in Pittsburgh, PA, where I recently put down roots after five years of living on the road. My work is rooted in connection. Whether I’m setting up my camera in the middle of the desert, brewery, in a garage studio, or at a music festival, I aim to capture people as they are in that exact moment.
As an Army veteran (11B) and traveling artist, I’ve been fortunate to build a community across the country through this 19th-century process. These days, I’m focused on creating that same sense of presence and storytelling here at home through studio sessions, and workshops, but I still jump at any chance to get back on the road. I’m always ready to travel for work.
Whether it’s your first tintype or just the next chapter in your story, I’d be honored to make something with you that lasts.
