A Date in the Darkroom: Film Developing & Printing Workshop

Celebrate Valentine’s Day on February 14 in the darkroom with this five-hour intensive workshop led by visual artist and professor RemiJin Camping, hosted in the photography facilities at Barry University.

Designed as both a learning experience and a shared moment, this workshop invites participants to slow down and engage with the tactile and transformative process of analog photography. Whether you attend with a partner, friend, family member, or on your own, this hands-on session offers an immersive introduction to film developing and darkroom printing.

Open to beginners, experienced artists, and curious creatives, the workshop is structured to support a wide range of skill levels. Working step by step in a supportive instructional environment, participants will learn essential darkroom techniques, including film development, handling photographic paper, exposure, chemical processing, and printing methods. Each participant will have the opportunity to develop and print their own photographic images, gaining practical skills and a deeper understanding of the analog workflow from start to finish.

No prior darkroom experience is required—just curiosity, patience, and a willingness to work in the dark.

Space is limited to 12 participants. Advance registration is required.

About the professor:

RemiJin Camping is a Filipina-American photographic artist based in South Florida. She holds two Bachelor degrees, one in Music and one with a concentration in Photography, and a Master of Fine Arts in Photography from Barry University in Miami Shores, Florida. In the Fall of 2022, RemiJin became an Assistant Professor of Photography at Barry University, where she teaches analog, alternative processes, and digital photography.

RemiJin’s artwork thoughtfully creates photo-based pieces and projects that explore themes of memory, emotions, and stories narrated with objects and landscapes. The need to make these works stems from an awareness of the limited existence humans have and wanting to give visual life to these narratives. Sometimes they are her own story, be it a happy or sad experience, and other times they are another person’s story that she has connected with and has been moved to tell.

A Critical Mass 2022 top 200 Finalist, RemiJin has shown her work nationally and internationally, most recently with Women Photographers- Shared Documentary Narratives at the HistoryMiami Museum in Miami, FL, Toiling the Land at ArtsGarage in Delray, FL,The City of Pembroke Pines 19th Annual Art Competition at Studio 18 Art Complex in Pembroke Pines, FL, in New Realities SPE 2024 Member’s Exhibition at SIUE Art and Design Gallery in Edwardsville, Illinois, Color Culture: Our History and Heritage through Fiber at the Thousand Islands Art Center in Clayton, New York, the MIFA Gallery in Miami, Florida in the group exhibition, The Chronicle is the Fable for these Timid Eyes, and at the CAMP Gallery in North Miami in the FAMA group exhibition, This is Not a Doll’s House.
