Adam Monk is the guy teaching this workshop…

Adam Monk began his Photographic career way back in the film and darkroom days, with many years of working in professional darkrooms printing extensively!  Adam also has over 20 years of hands on digital printing experience with large format professional printers.

Adam Monk worked out of his own gallery in Fremantle, for 13 years printing all his own work that goes on the wall as well as professionally printing images for many of Perth’s other Photographers.  Adam’s work  hangs in countless homes and businesses the world over, having printed and sold literally thousands of large format images over the years.  In all that time Adam only ever had one image returned for a re-print, and that the result of a faulty batch of canvas.

Adam is not someone who has just read a few books and decided to teach, Adam is a full time professional photographer, professional printer and photography mentor of nearly 30 years experience.  Adam has used and owned many different digital printers over the years, beginning with the rather primitive Epson 4000 from 2002, to the more recent Epson 9900 & 4900 Pro printers. He has extensive experience with almost all of the current range of Epson and Canon professional photo  printers,  Adam knows what he is doing, and  how to teach it to you.
