Wet-Plate Collodion Workshop (your location)
$650.00 USD
Workshop Info
Workshops are booked as needed. If you would like to see about scheduling a workshop, please email me here to get on the calendar.
The full workshop is $650 and includes the use of all cameras, chemicals and equipment. Also includes an instruction manual with chemical formulas, instructions, troubleshooting, etc.
We will be shooting plates sized 4x5 and 5x7. On day one we start with basic safety, equipment needs, chemical supplies, etc...afterwards we will finish that up, practice pouring plates, shoot and troubleshoot throughout the day under various lighting scenarios (indoors and out as well as natural and artificial). Finish up the day varnishing plates.
Same for Sunday...more shooting and troubleshooting using various ages of chemicals (so you can see how younger/older chemicals react). Most folks leave ready to shoot with minimal support afterwards, but I am always here to offer support.
I require a retainer to hold the spot (1/2 of cost) and the remaining 1/2 3 days before the workshop. If you wish to pay the full tuition up front, you may do that as well.
Once booked, the fees are nonrefundable. A change of date can be arranged if needed one time, but my travel schedule is not always flexible.
Workshop days can be long...I like to keep you shooting plates as much as possible. Be prepared to get stained up...wear your work clothes...or clothes that will become your work clothes.
Exact workshop location will be discussed via email or phone calls. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to email me through here,
I can travel to you. Have a studio/location that you need to get setup for shooting wetplate? Have family obligations that will not allow you to travel? Let me know and we can set something up. I typically only add actual travel/lodging expenses to the class cost. I bring it all to you...equipment/chems/etc.
