Analog Darkroom Consulting

Your personal photolab buying consultant

Would you like to set up a new photo lab, for private or professional use, e.g. in a university, archive or museum?
Given the multitude of options, are you unsure as to which devices actually make sense for your application and, above all, which ones fit together?

I have been involved in analogue photography for over 25 years, during which time I have set up numerous small and large photo labs and have continuously dealt with modern and old photo technology.

I will put together your own darkroom with all the necessary equipment and accessories according to your wishes.

Depending on your wishes and budget, you can choose from either modern new equipment, carefully selected second-hand equipment or a combination of both.

Enlargers, mask frames, film dryers, laboratory tanks, darkroom lamps, timers, grain focusers, dry presses, enlargement lenses, circuit boards, photographic dishes, measuring cups, developing tanks, processors, paper washers, and much more.

Whether it is a hobby darkroom or a university laboratory, whether you have a large or small budget, a complete laboratory or just additions, I am happy to use my experience, my contacts with manufacturers, as well as insights into the used market and procure the necessary equipment on your behalf.

For an initial, non-binding consultation, please send me a message using the contact form.

We will then discuss further details, I will put together the required equipment and then make you an offer.

You are welcome to round things off with a workshop in my Berlin lab, so that you master the basics of craftsmanship right from the start and can find your way around your own photo lab.
