“Edu is clearly a passionate analogue photography advocate! Knows his stuff and was all too happy to share past failures and successes from his own darkroom wizardry! Really went through everything with us and took time to spend some time with each of us in the class. Benefits of a small darkroom!”
— Brian F.
“I had a brilliant day at Photo Museum Ireland’s workshop, I started the day with no previous printing experience at all, and I left feeling confident to use a darkroom by myself and excited to experiment further with printing. If you are wanting to “demystify” the darkroom and hone your skills in analogue processes, I would highly recommend the Photo Museum Ireland courses!”
— Susanna Dodd
