## Resource

Step back in time with us as we visit Gardnerville, Nevada, and meet Rielynn, the creative force behind Eye of Rie Tintype Photography. In an age of smartphones and instant images, Rielynn has embraced one of photography's oldest and most fascinating processes, creating stunning tintype portraits that connect modern subjects with the rich history of the photographic arts. In this episode, we explore Rielynn's journey into historic photography, the challenges and rewards of working with nineteenth-century techniques, and why people are increasingly drawn to handcrafted images in our digital world. We discuss chemistry, creativity, patience, and the magic that happens when art, history, and storytelling come together in a single photograph. Whether you're a photographer, history buff, artist, or simply curious about unique creative paths, you'll enjoy this conversation about preserving the past while creating meaningful art in the present. Join us as we discover why sometimes the oldest technology can still produce the most memorable images.
