Slow portraits on tin - A victorian photography session

Slow portrait sessions are a personal experience which result in a one-of-a-kind nuanced and organic portrait. These portraits capture more than just a physical appearance. The nature of these sessions build anticipation. There’s a sense of presence in the moment rarely experienced in digital sessions. The images have an organic, grainy texture and unique tonal rendition. This adds a certain timelessness to the portrait. The process requires patience, as the outcome isn’t immediate. You and I will share a moment of mystery waiting for it to develop. Whilst we wait you will learn about the important place Edinburgh holds in the development of photography. When it's ready It feels like you’ve captured something enduring which creates an unbroken thread between now and the past. The entire experience is meditative and artistic, often resulting in a portrait that feels deeply personal and emotionally resonant.
