About

Robert Christian Malmberg's Collodion Portraits are a wonderful alternative approach to your "typical" bridal and engagement photos. The "wet plate collodion" process is a very early form of photography (dating back to the 1850's/Civil War Era). Malmberg uses all the original techniques including a large format "bellows" camera, antique lens, and exotic chemistry on glass and tin plates.

Malmberg's full service studio is located in Brooklyn, NYC. For an additional fee, Robert books an eclectic entourage (creative powerhouse) of fashion industry professionals (hair stylists, make-up artists, and fashion stylists ) to accentuate your good looks and natural beauty. Robert's Collodion work is ideal for that certain bride who is looking for a sense of timeless beauty and the highest quality of fine art portrait available in the industry today.

Robert was the most sweet and personable man. He was very patient with my daughter, and respectful of me. All of my photos were delivered in a timely fashion and looked better than I could have hoped for. The process that goes into the photos is just as interesting as the effect that they convey when they are done. His photos will be seen as timeless, or as if time stood still for that moment.

What an amazing Day! Hair and Makeup artists helped me look my best (and we had a ball chatting and laughing the whole time!) They had fantastic ideas and were open to my ideas as well.... Robert was SO amazing to work with. I thought I'd be a little nervous, but I wasn't... His professionalism and calmness made the day just fly by.

I gave one framed print to my Father as a gift and another to my aunt who watched me during the day as a baby... another print will stay with me for my great grand kids to fight over in 100 years!!

Treat yourself to this amazing gift that will last a lifetime!

Rob did a beautiful job with the portraits, and I was very pleased with the way they turned out. It was a unique and personal experience, which I think is probably very different from most current bridal portrait sittings. He was also very responsive and open to creating a specific look for the portrait. All around, a really fun time in Brooklyn!
