CC Imaging Ltd - Traditional

Traditional

Gone are the smelly darkrooms and the long waits for prints. Prints can now be produced in hours, even minutes if necessary, on shiny new machines. That doesn't mean that there is no longer room for traditional hand printing though.

Black & White and Colour hand printing is an artform some are beginning to re-discover. The majority of modern labs don't offer or have the knowledge to produce this.

DeVere

In the old days, photographic labs used to be staffed by chemical nerds smelling of noxius products; practicing the arts of technical alchemy in darkened rooms emerging only occasionally to hand over prints that had taken days to produce and which cost a fortune.

A remnent of these survived and found their way to CC, where they continue the legacy of subtractive printing on some of the last remaining DeVere colour enlargers.

What's that?

Processing aside, not a great deal is done these days without a computer. Hand printing is the dying art of darkroom colour printing. Like cine film, hand priting has a unique quality which can add flavour to an image.

Along with hand printing, we offer a copy & duplication service and also the facility to transfer a digital image onto 35mm transparency. Not a lot of people know that we do that, but we do!
