Alternative Process Photography Journals with Kasey Hembel | Teen

Concept and Experience

This workshop is all about creative photography play! Each day, learn an alternative photography process and combine it with a soft skill like composition, lighting, and color relationships. Students use cyanotype sun printing, Instax photos, and image transfer to create beautiful prints based on a favorite topic. On the last day, students combine their alternative process prints with vintage papers and ephemera of their choosing to bind their own photography journal. This workshop requires a camera of the students' choice, such as a smartphone, point-and-shoot, or DSLR. Instax and Polaroid cameras are also welcome.
