Shot Rite Photography Tintype Portraits Available Now!
Shot Rite Photography does more than simply take your picture.
We also offer unique and innovative portrait options such as Tintype Portraits.
A tintype, also known as a melainotype or ferrotype, is a photograph made by creating a direct positive on a thin sheet of metal coated with a dark lacquer or enamel and used as the support for the photographic emulsion. Tintypes enjoyed their widest use during the 1860s and 1870s. Shot Rite Photography is Chattanooga's leading provider of this novelty fine art form now available in the 21st century.
