Lumen Prints Demo with Rebecca Ustrell

Lumen Prints Demo with Rebecca Ustrell

It’s time to bend the rules of darkroom photography! Through the intentional misuse of traditional photographic paper, you’ll unlock surprising and beautiful results using natural materials and photographic negatives to create prints in blue, purple and orange hues.

A lumen print is a camera-less photographic process where objects are placed directly on unexposed black-and-white photographic paper and exposed to sunlight, creating a unique, colored photogram.
