Chattanooga's only Community Darkroom
& Local Processing Service

We've been working since 2019 to create a location for film enthusiasts in Chattanooga and surrounding areas to be able to come process and develop their photos. We've come a long way from our humble beginnings and while we are definitely still growing and updating (slowly), we are so proud of the community we've built here.

​

We offer memberships, film processing & scanning, and workshops to those interested in basic camera instruction, color and black & white film processing, and black & white printing. We also work with local photographers to bring more niche workshops as often as we can - including Cyanotype, Lithographs, and large format instruction.

​

We have chemicals available for use for members on the shelves in the darkroom but we recommend having your own chemicals in case we don't have what you need or prefer. We always have C-41, D-76, Fixer, Photo-Flo & printing chemicals available. We also provide a space for members to keep their belongings.

​

We are now selling our own black & white film stock, Noogapan 400, which is currently for sale at 3 locations around town; Townsend Atelier, Cherry Street Tavern & Sterna Studios.

 

​

Our most recent upgrades include....
- Arkay RC2100 Print Dryer
- Arkay CD-40 Film Drying Cabinet
- Custom made darkroom sink
