[David Harms]

Hello My name is David Harms. I love any type of alternative process I am from the Seattle Tacoma area here in Washington State. I was a industrial mechanic for 15 yrs before I decided that I wanted to do something with my brain instead of my hands. I am a graduate of the Art Institute in Seattle in commercial photography and was lucky to be in school before the onslaught they now call digital Photography. although I have experience with new technology I always am pulled back in time. yes you can try to make an app for that but really you aren’t fooling anyone. there is no replacing history and time. I have been doing Wet plate for a year now and really enjoy it. but just doing the process wasn’t enough. I had to start from scratch and built all of the pieces for the puzzle. I started with a 12 x20 view camera building all of the parts to construct it except lens bellows and gg. . then plate holders dip tanks and trays. That is why I feel I am ready for this process and am ready for the patience it requires. Also I have the ability to listen and absorb anyone’s input. and appreciate any knowledge that I receive to forward it in the future. to the next great Daguerre typist. I am also looking forward to gain knowledge from this great site ..thank you

Yes Jason I mean what I say, just give me a heads up and I will be there I am anxious to gain any knowledge I can and boring mindless work is important part of the learning process. Please email me when you get ready to work on the plates. Thanks David….davidharmsphotography@gmail.com
