Cool!  I love it when everyone in a big family agrees to take part in one of these.  My family did the same thing when I was 10 or 11 and I still love looking at that "tintype" to this day.

The tintype studio's costumes and photography are extremely authentic. My parents posed for a tintype at Silver Dollar City in the late 1970s. My 90-year-old great-aunt later saw the photo and got mad, thinking my parents had been hiding a real antique family photo from her!

^Haha! We've had two tintype photos done. One when I was little and another when we were on a trip with all our cousins. They both look really authentic and they are actually fun to take.

The sad thing is that now you can't get a real tin type photo anymore.

The photos taken outside with a real tin type camera and the photo made on a piece of tin have been replaced by a digital camera and a paper print.

A little too modern for true SDC fans.

^That's disappointing.  I suppose cost became an issue.
