Traditional Wet Plate & Alternative Process Photography

Telling stories through the lens

Hello my name is Paul, aka "The Collodion Ghost", a UK (Leicester) based traditional wet plate, analogue and alternative process photographer.

My passion is telling stories through the lens, using the technology of the past to say something new.

Whether it's a personal portrait, workshop, pop-up community event, project proposal or collaboration, my door is always open to new ventures.
