Sparks Gallery

At The end of May I had the pleasure of photographing Sparks Gallery and did tintypes and colored glass ambrotypes. The day of the shoot I couldn't have asked for better weather, cloudy weather is perfect for wet plate. I don't have to fight the sun. It was a honor working with them :)
Sparks Gallery is an art gallery in the Gaslamp quarter that showcases work by Southern California artists and it resides in the historic "Sterling Hardware Building". They also offer the building for photo shoots for a small fee. If you are visiting in San Diego, please make some to visit!
