Intro to Lumen Printing
In this introductory workshop participants will create uniquely toned photographic imagery using black and white photographic paper and the sun.
This process will be taught in our darkroom but is easily replicated at home with a few simple tools and the know how.
The lumen print has a one of a kind appearance that hints at an X-ray effect and can include a multitude of different tones and colours depending on the light source.
This is an easy class that is suitable for adults and children alike. No prior experience is necessary and all materials are provided.
'Intro to Lumen printing' is scheduled to go ahead under most weather conditions but in the event of heavy cloud cover or storms, we may consider postponing to a sunny day for perfect prints.
NOIR Darkroom workshops will go ahead with a minimum of one enrolment and in general we aim to keep our classes small to ensure participant satisfaction and the quality of the classes. Sometimes you may find yourself in a private tutorial and others you may be in a small-medium group.
- The fundamental ideas of photography as light and shadow
- The knowledge of photograms and how silver reacts with light
- Basic darkroom induction

Casual, an apron if preferred for the darkroom
All ages and skills welcome
We do not issue refunds on workshops if for any reason participants cannot attend on the day. We can, however, transfer participants into other workshops held at NOIR darkroom if we receive notification prior to 24hours before the class.
For special circumstances please contact info@noirdarkroom.com and we will do our best to work with you to resolve the issue.
