we're making a darkroom

I'm so excited for this little project. My friend Josha has the equipment for film development so she and I plan to make the basement of my apartment into a darkroom! This is going to be such a fun collaboration.
I used a darkroom in high school (quite a few years ago now) and I could not be more enthused about getting back into analogue photography! More on this topic to come :)
This second hand camera came with a roll of film inside, unfortunately it was destroyed when I opened it. I would have liked to develop the film and perhaps uncover clues about the original owner.

  1. computer editing is great but there's nothing like developing your own photos! can't' wait to see how they turn out!

  2. If I could pick one thing that I'd want to learn how to do before I die, it'd be to learn how to develop my own photos. I have learned photography on the digital format, but I'd like to learn "the real thing". There's just somewthing about doing things by hand that make them so much more fulfilling.

    1. Totally, I'll be putting up some process photos and tips once we get started with the darkroom so I hope that can inspire you. Thanks for the comment!
