She has been making 16x20 plates for the last months. Quite talented and hard working photographer.
I saw it. But there's been tintype going on all along by somebody. Thirty years ago I even ran into a little country convenience store that marketed tintype kits! - along with many other unusual things. The owner was into it himself. My family has quite a few old ones, including naked Indians in front of bark
huts, with a mtn in the background which I managed to positively identify despite the Petzval distortion.
