Wet collodion on metal plate
 
Today, at Alchemy Studio, I had the pleasure of capturing an extraordinary young woman from The Gambia. This portrait, created through the fascinating wet plate collodion process, is more than just an image; it’s a celebration of the strength and beauty of African women. Every step of this process, from preparing the plate to the final revelation, is a dance of alchemy that transforms moments into eternal memories. This portrait is a tribute to the alchemical magic that breathes life into each image, capturing the resilience and grace emanating from African women. Welcome to this enchanting journey of wet plate collodion, where each portrait tells a unique story of strength and elegance.
