The Paper Moon Project

Vintage photography has always been close to our hearts, and we’ve dreamed for years of offering a truly nostalgic portrait experience.


Paper Moon portraits first became popular in the early 1900s, when people would visit fairs and traveling studios to be photographed sitting on a painted crescent moon — a whimsical moment frozen in time. Inspired by those dreamy scenes and the silvery tones of historic tintype and wet collodion photography, we’ve created a modern fine-art version of this timeless classic. These sessions blend old-world charm with contemporary artistry to give you portraits that feel magical, romantic, and completely unique.



We are so excited to finally offer these exclusive tintype-style Paper Moon sessions and can’t wait to create something unforgettable with you.
