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.

Third in a 6-session series, Essential Darkroom Techniques introduces students to the analog printing process in the darkroom. Students will use their developed black and white film to make photographic prints using enlargers and traditional darkroom chemistry. Students will explore different darkroom techniques for enlarging photographs and then ultimately experience the magic of watching your prints come to life in the darkroom. This all day class allows time for 1 on 1 time with the instructor to ask any questions and receive feedback on your work.

All supplies will be provided, except for a 35mm film camera and developed B&W film. 

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.
