Tintype Photographs Pop-Up You know how old photos — we’re talking 100 years or more — have a magical, luminous quality to them, where the subjects almost seem to softly glow even in such stark black-and-white contrast? While this can be mimicked via modern, digital means, there are skilled artisans out there who still make photos the old-fashioned way. One of them is Coeur d’Alene-based Alderleaf Artworks, which hosts semi-regular pop-up photography sessions in the region. Their next session happens this weekend at the Art Spirit Gallery. While advance appointments are required, anyone can sign up to sit for a traditional tintype portrait, choosing whether to wear a stone-cold serious face or a smile. The resulting physical photograph has amazing gifting potential for a loved one.
