Photofusion is closed to the public!
We hope you are all safe and well and that you continue to wash your hands like they are fibre prints! We continue to support photographers and our members during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Like the rest of the art world, we have had to make the decision to close to the public from 6pm on Friday 20th March 2020 .
Most of us will be working from home, so feel free to email or call us on 020 7738 5774 if you need anything, even if it’s just to commiserate!
We are still offering printing and mounting services, but with reduced interaction with clients. Please email [email protected] to discuss requirements and time scales.
We have resumed our film processing mail order service
We are thinking of ways to keep our community active during this very surreal situation, please follow us on Instagram (@photofusionuk) to get involved.
We anticipate that this will be a very difficult few months for photographers, organisations and for us. We rely on earned income to survive, so we have just launched a Photofusion Pre-Pay Voucher.
Buy Now, Photograph Later
(and get 25% extra)
Well over fifty percent of our income comes from you, attending our courses, processing your film, printing your photos, using our darkrooms & scanners and just spending time here at Photofusion with us. Without you, well, there is no us.
To respond to the very real issue of cashflow, we are offering you the opportunity to buy vouchers worth 25% more than their cost (spend £100 and receive £125 in return).
These vouchers will help put cash in the till and provide vital funds to ensure we are here for you once this emergency is over. You can spend them anytime, there is no time-limit.
We are determined to survive and keep being your photography centre.
We hope to be back soon, but in the meantime please stay safe.
Over the last few weeks, we have been trying some new ways of making images, using processes that are manageable at home. Things like pre-coated cyanotype paper, lumen prints and chlorophyll.
We have asked on instagram to see what creative things you have been making, we have featured our favourite images here
Film Developing
Mail order service only!
We offer a range of film developing and scanning services. Drop your film off and it will be hand-processed by our highly skilled technicians. We can develop both black and white film and C41 colour film in 35mm, 120 and 4×5 film formats. We also have a postal option if you can’t make it to our space.
Photography Courses
We run a wide range of photography courses, each led by an experienced professional. There is something for everyone – whether you are new to photography and want to learn camera basics or you are a pro looking to develop additional skills. We even have one-to-one options available so we can tailor the lessons to you.
Exhibition: SIXTEEN x S2AU
7 February 2020 – 19 March 2020
This exhibition is the culmination of its year long tour across Britain, visiting 15 cities and towns, from Shetland to Belfast, via Hull and Newlyn. For our show at Photofusion, we turned over the Sixteen project to our youth collective, Sorry 2 Annoy U (S2AU). They have curated, programmed and planned the exhibition, including inviting local artists to respond to the themes addressed in the exhibition.
Talks And Events
