A Look Into ‘Photobooth’, An Open Tintype Photography Studio In San Francisco

Within the Mission District in San Francisco lies an amazing tintype photography studio called Photobooth. The best part is that you can just walk in and get a tintype portrait for yourself. Co-founder, Michael Shindler, not only talks about how it all got started but gives us a look into the process from start to finish. Check it out the next time you’re in San Francisco!

Dang. I was in San Fran last November. Wish I would have known, but the good thing is I’ll be there again for a conference this November!

Awesome. I agree with the last sentence. I started my journey with photography from digital cameras and I am very interested with film. It is just soo expensive.

Anyone know what he charges for a shot? I’m near SF and wouldn’t mind one of these as a gift to my girlfriend.
