19th Century Process Portraiture

Based in the Bayview neighborhood of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Amber Ascher Photography offers one-of-a-kind portrait sessions using the historic wet plate collodion process.

Each tintype is a unique physical object, crafted from start to finish using antique cameras, hand-mixed chemistry, and traditional slow & methodical techniques. The result is a unique portrait made to last for generations with depth, character, and timeless beauty.

Amber offers private sessions & events, pop-ups with local businesses, and home visits in Milwaukee, Waukesha, Washington, or Ozaukee Counties.
