DARKROOM
-
APW boasts a fully equipped darkroom available for hire. Great attention was given to designing this darkroom and ensuring maximum working comfort as well as top of the range printing equipment. Two separate spaces are available for hire, a dedicated film processing space and enlarging darkroom. Photographers may book singular sessions or arrange for multiple sessions if they are producing a body of work. An advantage of hiring APW’s darkroom facilities is the access to Dennis and Janus’ expertise for printing and processing assistance and guidance. Processing chemicals are included in the darkroom fee. Please supply your own printing paper.
