Meet the Teaching Artist
Meet the Teaching Artist
Nate Ely has a BA in Cinema and Photography from Binghamton University, and an MFA from SUNY at Buffalo. Nate has been working in the darkroom since 2007 and has introduced hundreds of students to the magic of analog photography since he began teaching in 2017.
Although interested in many different facets of photography, the particular focus of his work is in traditional/experimental photography. He is interested in modes of photography that have all but vanished from our daily experience of cameras, as a means to reconnect students with the history and phenomena of photography.

While C41 is typically a lab process, thanks to a continued interest in film photography, manufactors such as CineStill have developed premade chemistry to reliably develop your own C41 film at home. This beginner friendly, one day workshop will cover all the basics of film photography, including how to develop color negative film at home using the CineStill kit, and how to scan color negative film using Negative Lab Pro.
This class is a great introduction for those new to analog photography and wet darkroom work.
Offered in connection with Intro to 35mm, recommended first for anyone who is new to film photography. Students who sign up to this class without taking Intro will be encouraged to bring a roll to develop or come early to shoot a test roll.
All supplies included! Students will expose a test roll, and learn how to develop and scan their own color negative film. Additional lab time is included for students to return to CEPA and scan their film.

Anthotypes at Groundwork Market Garden
$15.00A 1-Day Class
Saturday, August 29th
11:00am–2:30pm
Ages 13+A Photography Class for Ages 13+
Join CEPA and artist Faith Mikolajczyk at Groundwork Market Garden to learn the ins and outs of anthotype printing using plants and produce locally grown at Groundwork!
Anthotype is an accessible and eco-friendly photographic process that utilizes the sun rather
then a camera to create a print. Discovered in 1839, this process utilizes the natural pigments
and photo-sensitive qualities of natural materials such as flowers, vegetables, and other plants.Participants will create several different emulsions out of natural materials, coat and prepare paper, and learn all the steps to make and finish exposing their anthotypes at home. Anthotype is a simple process, but one that requires several days of sun exposure to produce good results.
Groundwork Market Garden is an urban farm located on Buffalo’s East side in the Genesee Moselle neighborhood since 2015. They provide only the highest quality, most nutritious, USDA certified organic fruits and veggies.

Spirit Photography
Price range: $25.00 through $30.00A 1-Day Class
Friday, October 16th
6:30pm–8:30pm
Ages 16+A Photography Class for Ages 16+
Step into the mysterious world of spirit photography in this immersive, hands-on large format photography workshop.
Together, we’ll uncover the fascinating history of 19th-century portraiture and the rise of “ghostly” imagery that captivated audiences of the era. Through guided instruction, participants will experiment with the very techniques that gave spirit photography its uncanny allure—pre-exposing spectral figures onto paper film and mastering the use of an 8×10 large format camera.
In addition to creating hauntingly beautiful portraits, you’ll gain a solid introduction to large format photography, darkroom processes, and the artistry behind historical photographic methods.
To heighten the atmosphere, participants are invited to come dressed in period-inspired costumes—perfect for adding an extra layer of authenticity (and spookiness!) to your images. Everyone will leave with a collection of one-of-a-kind spectral portraits, along with new technical skills and a richer appreciation of photography’s haunted past.
