About Stephen Turner
While I have knowledge and experience across both digital and analogue photography, my role mainly focuses on analogue and alternative photographic processes and studio techniques.
I provide specialist support, demonstrations, advice, and guidance to staff, students, and visiting artists regarding technical problems relating to darkroom and film processing, alternative print processes, studio use, camera, and lighting techniques.
I ensure that the photography department adheres to health and safety legislation and best practice with the handling of chemicals.
