Mark Osterman and France Scully Osterman established Scully & Osterman in 1991. Through extensive primary research and practical application, the Ostermans have evolved as historians and modern masters of the wet-plate collodion process.

The current artistic revival of collodion photography is a direct result of their influence, as they were the leaders in exhibiting and publishing their work as artists, openly sharing their knowledge through lectures, publications, workshops and tutorials. Photograph conservators, collectors, museum curators and the most advanced collodion photographers turn to the Ostermans when they have collodion-related questions.

Located in Rochester, NY, Mark is Photographic Process Historian for the Advanced Residency Program at George Eastman House International Museum of Photography & Film; France works and teaches in their skylight studio. They are both represented by Howard Greenberg Gallery, NYC and Tilt Gallery, Phoenix, AZ.
