Blue, Green & Purple? What could it be?!

Making notes from my project in my current copy of The Ultimate Film & Darkroom Workbook to keep track of the rolls of to make my life easier and keep my film & paper budget on track! 😂📸🎞️

I've been using my trusty Olympus OM1 on and (all pushed and pulled due to tricky lighting conditions inside the building) but wow. What a place.

Here's what I did:

I started in the lightest / brightest rooms with FP4+ at 200iso for fine grain, then some classic HP5+ at 800iso for some flexibility, and finally Delta 3200 at 1600iso in the incredible basement darkroom.

The OM1 only goes up to 1600, and that was actually enough anyway.

I focused on exploring the labels of dusty boxes & bottles

The beautiful old brown paper packages tied up with string (I felt like Julie Andrews about to burst into song)

The incredibly touching little love notes that Edward & Margaret wrote to each other, littered around the place.

All the little pieces of someone's life, that add up into an incredible legacy, but which also show, deep down, a little glimpse of the thoughtful, fun, eclectic and fascinating people behind the portraits they took and the photographs they made.

What a privilege.

Any questions, reach out, I'd love to talk about it!

Hey folks! It's crisis time! - Volunteer Assistant(s) Call Out.

If you have an enthusiasm for analogue film photography and would like to come and hang out to lend a hand on the stand at the NEC in Birmingham for - get in touch!

Unfortunately two of my brilliant volunteer assistants are now unable to attend/assist due to health circumstances.

As the four days of workshops and demos that I deliver is unpaid, unfortunately this also means that I have not been given a budget for assistance, and this would be a volunteer basis.

However, it's also a GREAT way to see behind the scenes of a trade show and get to explore The Photography Show itself with four days of FREE tickets.

You'll also receive:

✨ A copy of The Ultimate Film & Darkroom Workbook
✨ A Cyanotype kit
✨ Little Vintage Photography Membership
✨ Darkroom Hire at HQ (corresponding amount of days!)

Anything else I can think of as a thank you! (probably some sweets or biscuits!)

Developing in the Dark - Illuminating stories of support - Exhibition now open!

I've been incredibly proud to work on this uplifting and enlightening collaborative project with the charity to create a full film photography and darkroom exhibition highlighting the vital support that they provide with their Helplines Hub.

It's a whole directory of helplines and support for a huge breadth of needs and challenges, from chronic migraine, to bereavement, mental health to physical health, I never knew this free service existed.

We've worked with 10 participants who have shared their powerful and beautiful stories with us, I've shot and hand-processed upwards of 30+ rolls of film, printed 20x16 inch fine art silver prints in the darkroom by hand, and created contact sheets for each person so you can catch a little glimpse behind the scenes, and see a little of the story that they have to tell.

None of us is a single image or a single frame. There's always so much more going on under the surface, challenges that we all face but that you'd never know about.

This has been a real labour of love and we've found such generosity and kindness in the journey of bringing this all out of the darkness and into the light.

We couldn't have made it happen without our headline sponsors and it's also been shown in all the little acts of kindness and helping hands - the and Baltic Photo Club members for helping us to install the whole exhibition and our fellow tenants & colleagues for finding extension leads, cables, lamps and goodness knows what else to make it such a fantastic experience for everyone who visits.

I can't wait to see where we go with it next and how many people's lives it may change...

If you're near Liverpool today, the exhibition is open now and we have the celebration event tonight (25th Feb) - 6-8pm here at

We'll also be open again on Friday 9-5pm.

This month is going to be a really special opportunity to meet an analogue photography project client / collaborator (Gemma - Director of Operations from the Helplines Partnership charity ) and work together as a curatorial team to hang an entire exhibition 'live' in the space.

We'll hear about the project from Gemma herself, and work together to make decisions about sequence, position and storytelling whilst we hang 20 pieces ready for the open view of the exhibition 9-5pm on 23rd, 25th and 27th Feb, along with a special celebration event on 25th Feb (6-8pm)

*Update* We've had to extend the number of tickets to the celebration event due to demand - so if you'd like to come along, I think there are now a handful of tickets left on Eventbrite for the evening of 25th.

All I want for Christmas is... connection with my loved ones.

We can't stop the clock, but we can make sure another year doesn't fly past without spending time together, making memories to last a lifetime and pass on to those who come after us.

Imagine, a full day, fully tailored workshop, guided tuition, working side by side, learning skills that will last you for life and creating something completely unique, made by hand, to take home and treasure.

If you, or someone you love would like to learn TOGETHER - I currently offer the option for 'Pairs' Workshops.

Yes, it'll give you both a HUGE saving of £150pp
Yes, you'll get to learn and make and create to take home
Yes, it'll be blissfully unplugged, no-screens, offline connection with zero-distractions...

But waaay more important than all of that, in so many other ways, is how valuable that experience will become over time.

Don't let it pass you by. Find the option that suits you at the Workshop link in bio (or drop me a DM)
