Prior to the session, I had been very interested to participate in a tintype session and learning more about this specific analogue process of photography, but did not have the capacity to book a session because of monetary costs. When this new workshop was announced at a price range which I could afford, I had a session booked immediately. The highlight of the session for me was seeing how consistent and effortlessly Ryan was able to set up the collodion plates, which may look easy to an untrained eye but is not an easy task. Very thankful to the team at Hip Xiong Photo Studio for keeping wet plate photography accessible and alive in Singapore.
If you're looking for an activity that is rare and doesn't take up too much time, this is it. A very concise, straight up no nonsense hands-on experience that you wouldn't want to miss. Bonus points for awesome coffee (you can smell it once you enter the rustic shop house along the road @ Geylang Road) and of course, meeting the sweet and kind person behind the camera, Ryan. This is probably an experience that you'd like to keep, together with your own personal tintype portrait for a long long time!
We had an amazing experience here. The host was very knowledgeable and passionate about his craft, explaining each step with care and enthusiasm. He was patient and made the whole process enjoyable and memorable. I highly recommend this experience to anyone interested or feel like trying something unique.
A lot of care was taken into ensuring that the experience was enjoyable, educational, and worthwhile. Will definitely come again.
Had a really fun tintype photography experience. Ryan was generous with his knowledge and explained the process in a way that was easy to follow and engaging. I especially loved being able to experience everything hands-on, from coating the metal plates to seeing the final image come to life. It was such a unique and rewarding experience. Highly recommend this to anyone curious about alternative photography processes.
Loved learning about tin type photography and getting a portrait taken. Highly recommend!
