Hello everyone – after a year of settling in here in Berlin, I’m ready to start offering workshops/tutorials in wet-plate collodion (positives and negatives), as well as alternative printing via, albumen, salt paper, cyanotype, and Anthotype.  I first learned wet-plate collodion through the Sculley/Ostermans back in 1999, and I have taught these processes since 2002 as an instructor at the Maine College of Art and as assistant instructor at the Photographer’s Formulary in Montana.  Below is a “resume” noting my work experience as well as exhibitions.  Please contact me for information regarding scheduling, pricing, or if you have any other questions.  Workshops are held in English, with a heavy dose of my poor Deutsch.
