Wet Plate Collodion Books
I've published (or am in the process of) five books. I've published three technical books (TCWPCE books) and two fine art books ("Conferring Importance" and "Kristallnacht").
My first book, "The Contemporary Wet Plate Collodion Experience" was published in 2006. It's no longer available for purchase. My new TCWPCE are listed here (some still in the editing or production phase). If you have any questions, feel free to drop me an email.

Wet Plate Collodion Workshop DVD Series®
If you want to learn the wet plate collodion process, but can't attend a workshop, there's no better way than to get my Workshop DVD Series. They're the closest you'll get to attending a workshop. I cover everything from making chemistry to varnishing plates.
