Te Aroha Romp: Wet Plate Portrait Sessions

Capture a Timeless Portrait in Te Aroha – Exclusive NZMCA Discount!

While enjoying the NZMCA Te Aroha Romp this November, take the opportunity to step back in time with a wet plate collodion portrait at Tintype Central, New Zealand’s only wet plate portrait studio. Using a photographic process from the 1850s, Tintype Central creates beautifully unique, handcrafted portraits on glass or tin that offer a genuine glimpse into the past.

Te Aroha’s history as a famed spa town makes it the perfect setting to honor both your visit and the early days of photography. Wet plate portraits were once the pinnacle of photographic art, and you can experience this rare and authentic technique during your stay.
