£40.00

25th April, 10.30am - 2pm

This hands-on workshop introduces you to the full black and white film developing process, from exposed roll to finished contact print. Working in a shared darkroom environment, you’ll develop your own film under close guidance, gaining confidence, understanding, and a deeper connection to analogue photography.

This is a practical, tactile session designed for people who want to slow down and experience photography at its most physical and intentional.

What You’ll Do

  • Arrive with one roll of black and white film already shot

  • Learn how to prepare your film for development

  • Develop your own roll of film in the darkroom, step by step, under instruction

  • Break for lunch while your negatives dry

  • Return to learn how to create a contact sheet

  • Make a contact print from your own negatives to take away

What You’ll Learn

  • The fundamentals of black and white film processing

  • How to handle film safely and confidently in a darkroom

  • How to read a contact sheet and evaluate your negatives

Who This Workshop Is For

  • Photographers curious about analogue processes

  • Digital photographers wanting to understand film from the ground up

  • Anyone who shoots black and white film but has never developed it themselves

No prior darkroom experience is required.
