Having just been introduced by two men working independently of each other — Henry Fox Talbot in England who claimed to invent (negative) photography and Louis Daguerre, in France, the (positive) silver-plated copper image — photography had a multitude of possible identities in the United States.
The daguerreotype became one of the most popular methods after it was introduced in the United States, with studios established all over New York.

Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre (1787–1851) and the Invention of Photography
daguerreotype
Each daguerreotype is a remarkably detailed, one-of-a-kind photographic image on a highly polished, silver-plated sheet of copper, sensitized with iodine vapors, exposed in a large box camera, developed in mercury fumes, and stabilized (or fixed) with salt water or "hypo" (sodium thiosulphate).
Although Daguerre was required to reveal, demonstrate, and publish detailed instructions for the process, he wisely retained the patent on the equipment necessary to practice the new art.
