It was such an honor to be able to setup and shoot tintypes at the @billy_reid Shindig two weeks ago back down in my hometown of Florence, Alabama. Had a great time and got to meet lots of people from across the world who came out. Looking forward to catching up again with all of you in the future.

Finished the weekend off with my favorite shot of the trip of Billy Reid himself. Taken on an 8x10 sheet of black glass.

Wrapping up the week with this full-band tintype of The Marcus King Band, made a few months back in the backyard. I shared a solo portrait of @realmarcusking earlier this week, but this one felt like the right way to close things out for the week.

It was a four-second exposure, so everyone had to stay perfectly still. Even Marcus’ dog Duck managed to hold still enough to feel like he belonged in 1865, with just the slightest hint of motion.

Jack Ryan, the band’s drummer, noticed an axe leaning against the big stump and picked it up like it had been waiting for him. The whole scene just came together naturally.

Tagging the full crew:

Loved capturing this little one and her family recently. When they arrived she told me what they had for lunch - it was “bock bock.” I wasn’t sure what that was, and it turned out to be chicken! Adorable! We now use the term “bock bock” around the house for chicken. 😍

If you’re ever in Tokyo and you like vintage photographic lense and cameras, you should stop by @fotomutori - can’t recommend it enough. Tomoya’s attention to detail and friendliness are top notch. I ended up picking up a Darlot loupe, because I needed a loupe. But…if you need a lens Voitlander, Carl Zeiss, Hermagis, Cooke, Dallmeyer, etc., you should stop by. Plus, it’s just a cool little shop. Five stars. Highly recommended.

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
