Tintype’s renaissance is thanks in no small part to the individuals and companies who have dedicated themselves to providing the equipment and chemistry that keep it alive. Without them, this process would have been relegated to history and obscurity.

We are proud to work with , , , , and for Silver in the Sagebrush this year. These are the brands James and I rely on in our daily tintype practice, each providing the highest level of craft, consistency, and reliability.🤌🏻 💯

When the equipment and chemistry are dependable, the focus shifts entirely to the image itself. To seeing, working, and making.


🔹 : our primary chemistry supplier, providing the materials that make tintype possible, along with a 4x5 kit donated for our annual student raffle

🔹 : supplying precision wet plate holders that are lightweight, reliable, and built to last

🔹 : supplying silver nitrate tanks built to last a lifetime, with long-term reliability in the field. Along with raffling essential accessories for field development

🔹 : providing camera and tripod setups for the workshop.

🔹 : Supplying powerful, reliable lighting that allows us to make strobe-based tintypes possible in the studio

Gratitude for Z 🤍

Before we share what’s ahead for 2026 and our new work study, we want to take a moment to honor someone who has been part of our Silver in the Sagebrush journey from the very beginning (Z).

Z traveled all the way from Ireland to join our very first Silver in the Sagebrush workshop, becoming one of the first five students to step into this space and learn the tintype process with us.

This past year,2025, she returned not just as a participant, but as our very first work study for our second annual workshop and retreat. Holding both roles, student and supporter. Z showed up with presence, care, and deep attentiveness to the experience unfolding around her.

A multidisciplinary visual artist and an exceptionally kind human, Z brought a grounded and thoughtful energy that touched everyone involved. She not only supported the flow of the workshop, but also helped us better understand and navigate the workload and needs of what a work study role can truly be. something that will shape how we move forward in the years to come.

Behind the scenes, she documented the workshop through images and video. Capturing the essence of the process, our connections, and the moments that during our 5 day workshop.

That kind of documentation is invaluable to Jae’s and I. It allows us to share the spirit of this work, while also demonstrating just how in-depth and immersive this workshop truly is for those who are serious about engaging with the process in a meaningful way.

It helps us continue to grow a space that feels as intentional as it is transformative.

Z, thank you, thank you, thank you for being part of the roots of this workshop, and for helping us carry it forward.

With deep appreciation 🤍
