A few years ago I got inspired by a documentary about Sally Mann.
I was touched by the wonderful look of the collodion pictures she showed.
I am into collodion photography, also known as "wetplate photography", for a few years now.

This Blog is to share the wonderful, unique and challenging photographic process.

COLLODION WORKSHOPS 2012

If you are interested in the magical collodion process and want to know all about this kind of photography,
just join my workshop "wet plate photography".
The place to be is Veldhoven (nearby Eindhoven).
I give these workshops on Saturdays and only/always to a small group of 2 students.
So this is almost a one to one workshop and not in a large group where you lose a lot of time waiting at each other.
In the morning you will learn how to handle the chemicals,
and the whole process will be discussed.
At noon we will have a nice lunch together.
In the afternoon you will start making your own plates in my studio and darkroom.
I will only assist you when needed and you will produce your own collodion plates.
That's the nicest part of the workshop !!
This whole process isn't difficult, but you really need to know what to do and what you DON'T do !
You don't need to have any darkroom background as this process is really
different compaired with normal analog photographic processes.

If you need any further information, don’t hesitate to send me an e-mail :
collodion-art@onsmail.nl or call me on 0031-402301470
