My brother Sean & his wife Sara! They posed for Darcy and I while running late enroute to their far away home. Thankfully they did postpone their departure, because this dag really looks nice. Sean sat still as a rock for the entire minute which gave much joy to assure sharp focus with my newly calibrated ground glass. Sara flinched just a bit, but she still looks gorgeous nestled on Sean's shoulder just behind the plane of focus. The plate is pretty good.... although I am always very critical on myself... little over developed, smear next to Sean's left eye, etc.... (the dust spots seen here are mainly do to the poor digital scan, and poor quality glass doesn't help the cause any... The glass will be replaced once fitted in a case.)  Sean & Sara

Chad DjubekThis historic process, invented by Jaques Daguerre in 1839, provides a unique depiction of important people, places, and moments in life. After training with Jerry Spagnoli, one of the most notable Daguerreotype artists, we have gained a love and appreciation for this medium that can only be realized by experiencing final pieces in person. This is especially significant due to the hallographic visual quality provided by these artistic representations. The final product is a mirror image of the subject captured on a silver coated copper plate, beautifully enclosed in a case built specifically to display the intended image. Longevity is certainly an asset to this art, as dags have proven to last well beyond 100 years. Archives
