A 4-week photography course aimed at those wanting to learn more about analogue photography and get to grips with photographic darkroom processes!

This course is ran by artist and photographer Kat Wood.


Week 1. Shooting in Black & White.

Photo walk + portrait photography.
Learn how to use a 35mm film camera, understand light and composition, and start seeing the world in black & white. Includes a guided photo walk and simple portrait photography techniques.


Week 2. Developing Your Film.

From Camera to Negative.
Learn how to develop your own black & white film in the darkroom. Understand the chemistry, process your role.


Week 3. Darkroom Printing.

Use enlargers to create your own photographic prints. Learn exposure control, contrast, and leave with finished black & white images.


Week 4. Photograms & Experimental Printing.

Creative & Cameraless Techniques.
Explore photograms, layering, and alternative printing methods. Push the boundaries of the darkroom and experiment with playful, abstract, and expressive image-making.

The sessions will run from 6pm - 8:30pm on the following Wednesdays; 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th April.


Transport

• We are within a short walk from Stockport train and bus station. Parking is available at the Merseyway Shopping Centre NCP.

Refunds and Booking Terms

• Workshop and course bookings can be cancelled and refunded up until 7 days before the scheduled start date. As the workshop fees part support the work we do for as a non-for-profit, and because materials and equipment are ordered in advance, we regret that refunds cannot be offered less than 7 days before the workshop date.

• Unfortunately we cannot offer part refunds if you miss a session or are unable to attend!
