Rather than simply teaching darkroom processes, the weekend focuses on developing a thoughtful, considered printing practice, one that values observation, craftsmanship and the expressive possibilities of the silver print.With only five participants, this workshop offers plenty of individual guidance and support, allowing you to work at your own pace while receiving one to one tuition throughout the weekend.Whether you are looking to refine your existing printing skills or deepen your understanding of black and white photography, this workshop will give you the confidence, knowledge and techniques to produce prints of the highest quality.Day OneThe first day begins with an opportunity to explore Daniel's extensive archive of black and white prints. This includes original prints by John, alongside prints by Daniel and a selection of work made by John's former students.Together you will discuss print quality, tonality and the remarkable malleability of photographic paper. The workshop will also demystify the often dreaded Zone System, exploring how exposure, negative development and careful negative assessment influence the final print.After lunch, Daniel will demonstrate a range of darkroom printing techniques before spending the afternoon looking through your own negatives and existing prints. Together, you will identify your strongest images, discuss your intentions for each photograph and prepare a printing plan for the following day.The day concludes with everyone being assigned an enlarger and getting the darkroom set up, ready for a full day of printing.Day TwoToday we print.The second day is dedicated entirely to printing from your own negatives, with individual guidance and one to one tuition throughout.Rather than producing large numbers of prints, this workshop encourages a slower and more considered approach to darkroom practice. You will be encouraged to explore print tonality, refine your technique and discover the expressive possibilities within each negative.You may find yourself working with only one to three negatives throughout the day, but the aim is not quantity. The aim is to produce master prints, prints that realise the full potential of your photographs.The workshop concludes with an introduction to simple archival toning techniques, followed by a demonstration of traditional hand spotting.What to BringPlease bring a selection of your own developed black and white negatives.A selection of photographic paper is included within the workshop fee. Additional paper will be available to purchase if required, although you are very welcome to bring your own preferred papers.If you are unsure whether your negatives are suitable, please get in touch before the workshop and we will be happy to advise.Who is this workshop for?This workshop is suitable for anyone interested in improving their black and white darkroom printing, from enthusiastic beginners to experienced printers looking to refine their practice.Some previous experience of shooting film or using a darkroom is recommended to get the most from the weekend.

We provide accessible facilities and support for photographers, and also a platform for individuals and communities to develop creative photographic work and engage with one another.The Nottingham Centre for Photography and Social Engagement was founded on 4th June 2019 to support individuals who are excluded from formal routes into photography - whether due to financial barriers, life circumstances, or entering the field later in life.We provide access to photography education, resources, and community practice for people across Nottingham, with a focus on removing barriers and fostering creative confidence. Our work serves a wide demographic, including young people, career changers, and lifelong learners, and is designed to engage those who feel disconnected from traditional photography education or cultural participation due to age, gender, ethnicity, income, health, or other forms of exclusion.Our activities include affordable or fully-funded workshops, talks, exhibitions, and a resource-sharing scheme. We also run monthly social events to support peer learning and connection - both for the wider community and as part of our dedicated group for women photographers, which promotes inclusion and visibility. These programmes create accessible opportunities for community engagement, learning, and volunteering through photography." } ] } ] ```
