Tintype portraits of Hollywood celebrities by vintage camera at the Sundance Film Festival 2015
Sundance Film Festival is the American indie cinema event, and Tintype (also known as melainotype and ferrotype) is an old photography technique in the second half of the 19th century by creating a direct positive on a sheet of metal, photographer Victoria Will merged them together at Sundance Film Festival 2015, instead of photographing with a DSLR, she captured aluminum tintype portraits of Hollywood celebrities by using an old Graflex Super D camera. “What I love about the process is how raw it is,” on talking about her work, Victoria Will tells Profoto. “We live in an age of glossy magazines and overly retouched skin. But there is no lying with tintypes. You can’t get rid of a few wrinkles in Photoshop.”
