In this exciting two day workshop we'll use the most readily available materials to create fully functional large format cameras (which use modern film holders) and lenses. We'll use inexpensive lithography film and a special developer to make large negatives that have a full tonal range but cost a fraction of the price of conventional 8 x 10" film. Armed with these simple tools we'll explore their use in the field.

No experience necessary.

Class is limited to six participants.

Location: F295 Studio, Pittsburgh PA
Date: March 20-21, 2010 (Sat, Sun)
Time: 9:00am to 5:00pm (with break for lunch)
Cost: $225 (+$50 materials fee)

"It is my belief that sometime in the early part of the new administration travel restrictions to Cuba will be relaxed, if not altogether removed. I feel this will occur no later than August, perhaps sooner. I am not the only one who feels this way, please read Focus on Cuba, an MSNBC report written by Andrea Mitchell, Chief foreign affairs correspondent for NBC News.

After the island is officially opened it will be possible to travel there anytime. But if you want to be among the first to photograph the old Cuba before the new Cuba of McDonald and Wal-Mart emerges, you will want to join me."

Lith printing is a process that uses a lithographic two part developer in a very dilute solution to obtain color and texture from a black and white paper. Different papers have different qualities in Lith printing, ranging in color from warm sepias to salmon and even olive tones. Other papers have very little color shift, achieving beautiful textures instead, giving the print a texturally graphic quality.

In this four week workshop, students will explore the world of Lith printing and a whole new way to express themselves artistically. Attendees will learn how to "expose for the highlights and develop for the shadows", which is the basic principle in Lith printing. All students who attend this class should have a basic knowledge of traditional black in white printing.

Photographer's Formulary has always been a steadfast champion of traditional and alternative photographic processes. Freestyle has proudly carried their products for many, many years, and we are equally happy to spotlight their wonderfully in-depth and intense photographic workshops. Hosted in the unmatched splendor of the Montana Rockies, the workshops cover a wide range of subjects, including Kallitype, Van Dyke, Platinum & Palladium, Lith Printing, Collodion, Carbro Printing, Bromoil, and even the classic Daguerrotype! The workshops are also taught by some of the world's foremost authorities on alternative processes, including Freestyle Advisory Board Member Dr. Tim Rudman. We challenge you to find another group of workshops so dedicated and all-encompassing as Formulary's...and quite frankly, we doubt you'll succeed. The workshops take place over several dates through the summer and autumn of 2007. For information about specific subjects, instructors, and alternative processes in general, visit more information...

From its base of operations in the beautiful oceanside community of Venice, the Julia Dean Workshops have thrust to the forefront of independent photography instruction in Southern California. With a range of over fifty classes covering everything from the most basic to the most advanced aspects of both traditional wet darkroom and digital photography, the workshops have helped hundreds of photo enthusiasts looking to improve their craft. Many of the classes are taught by Julia herself, and others by such noted photo luminaries as Gerd Ludwig (Time, LIFE, Newsweek, Fortune), Michael Grecco (Paramount, ABC, Playboy, Esquire), and others. The workshops aren't restricted to the L.A. area, either; Julia's 2007 schedule includes expeditions across America, Morocco, Italy and Bangladesh Freestyle has just entered into a partnership with the Julia Dean Workshops, and we are all excited about the fruits this collaboration will surely bear.

"Let the wind of change blow by. Leave me a little bit frayed and tattered, but keep me tethered to the truth, aware of the direction from which my own life will evolve." - Wendy The Retreats, located in the historic and elegant coastal F. Holland Day House “chalet”, are an opportunity for women with breast or other cancer or life threatening illness to mobilize their natural powers of healing through creativity. There are daily photographic assignments combined with the coaching of Dr. Matthew Budd, a 20 year professor at Harvard Medical School and author of the book You Are What You Say. At the workshops, we engage in creative activity through word, image making, movement, and even prayer (a special form of poetry). In so doing we witness our hesitancy to be artists, our fears of the unknown, our embarrassment, but we also experience being on the cutting edge of the moment... standing in the present and creating the next moment. Our poems, essays, and photographs are the artifacts of our creati...
