A self-built darkroom camera in Giroux daguerreotype style (2m height) that can be in use as both a darkroom and a camera for my customer's Daguerreotype, wet/dry plate collodion processes and film photography session. I drew its plan and built it all on my own. After a photo session, you can get inside this camera and see the development of your photograph.

He grew up as the 4th generation of a family-owned photo studio. He has mainly taken Daguerreotype, Wet plate collodion process and Dry plate collodion process photographs for his customers with his hand-made large format camera. But, since 2019, he has started to build a huge portable darkroom camera in Giroux Daguerreotype camera style in the photo studio. Customers can get inside the darkroom camera and also witness how the photo that this darkroom camera takes is developed with a photographer. He has also got interviewed for some newspapers and a tv program about what he has been doing.
