True Biker Spirit - the blog

Today we’d like to send a little help towards Portland Oregon.

Giles Clement is a talented photographer perpetuating the lost art of Wetplates and Tintypes

“I use a camera built in 1905 and a lens created in 1849 to craft one-of-a-kind, magical images of silver and light.”

Chances are you have already seen some of his other work, as he is the author of a well know series of photographs portraying ladies and their bikes. Yes, you may even have spotted Alicia aka the Motolady.

Giles loves his craft and would very much like to keep his studio rolling, here is how you can help:

- pay a visit to Giles’ studio or have him come to you

- shout out to your crew and organise a massive bike and riders portrait session, we’d love to see the results

- buy prints from his online store at : http://www.etsy.com/shop/gilesclement
