Photography is so much more than a quick phone snap; the hands-on experience of analog processes are undeniably fascinating. Here is your opportunity to get a glimpse into the world of darkroom film photography and alternative processes.

Fifth in a 6-session series, Alternative Darkroom Techniques explores several non-traditional analog photographic processes. Cameraless photography techniques will be explored including cyanotypes, photograms, lumen prints, and printing on various surfaces with liquid emulsion will be explored. Printing and developing with sustainable processes will also be included like caffenol, anthotypes, and salt fixers. Students who are interested in fine art alternative photography processes are encouraged to apply.

All chemical supplies will be provided. Students are encouraged to bring different surfaces they would like to print on and any materials they would like to use for cyanotype, photograms and lumen prints.

Students do not need to register for the entire series, they can take only the classes that work for them.

Morgan Ford is a Fine Art Photographer from Johnson City, TN. Morgan has been an artist all of her life, but after her first 35mm photography course in High School she fell in love with the process of light and catching that brief moment in time. At the age of 20 years old she moved to California and studied photography at Brooks Institute of Photography where she learned to shoot and develop her own film. Morgan has had exhibits all over the country showing her Fine Art B&W Photography of beautiful countrysides, wild horses, and dilapidated buildings. She currently resides in the Appalachian Mountains where she has a studio, darkroom, and large garden.

Registration Deadline: September 5
