The Master Printers Workbook: A Professional Guide to Black & White Darkroom Technique

Photographic printing is rapidly becoming the real enthusiast’s domain. The Master Printer’s Workbook satisfies the need - a comprehensive ‘all you need to know’ reference guide to processing and printing techniques from one of the world’s great printers, regularly working for such international names as Mario Testino, Zed Nelson and Rankin. Starting with the basics and carrying on into more complex techniques, it also provides tips, help and guidance which allow more experienced workers to improve their results. ‘Workbook’ sections, with notes on exposure, dodging, burning toning etc, and the author’s commentary on the brief and why he did what he did, give compelling insights into the practice and process, taking the reader through real life printing jobs for the word’s greatest photographers. Big photos by big names jostle with the authentic inside info on how they were achieved a unique and unmissable combination.
