Shooting On Film

Become a better film photographer.

  • Get started on your path to shooting film photography. We’ll cover all of the basics then take a photowalk to show you the ropes.

  • Learn to shoot like Ansel Adams. Experience film in high fidelity while opening the door to shots you can’t achieve with a typical 35mm camera.

  • Make every shot count! Exposure is the core to all photography. Once you learn to meter your shots, the rest is a walk in the park.

MEET THE INSTRUCTORS

Daniel
Iannaccone

Film Photography

Constantly preoccupied thinking about film, don't ask him a question if you are looking for a short answer. He’s that guy behind the curtain pulling all the strings and putting everything in motion. Obsession is an understatement when talking about his interests in photography.

Stacy
Iannaccone

Alternative Process

Stacy likes Film, E.T., Cyanotypes, old cameras, and olive oil. She also thinks that photography can be fun, it doesn’t need to be stuffy or tight. The best photos don’t need to be taken with a fancy camera. She’s always up for trying something new or weird, hopefully both.

  • "I had the pleasure of taking a darkroom printing class at Phoenix Film Revival over the weekend and had an awesome time. Dan and Stacy are both clearly super knowledgeable and passionate about the subject matter as well as very friendly people and great teachers. For anyone looking to expand their knowledge of film photography the experience you get, especially for their reasonable prices, is unmatched and I can't recommend it enough. Can't wait to return!"

  • "I loved the intro to film class! The length was perfect and Stacy & Daniel are so knowledgeable and patient. I had been an avid black and white film photographer in high school and the course brought back so many memories and information I had lost over the last 18 (!) years. I am so excited to take more classes here and remember what it’s like to have hobbies. I paid extra for them to develop my film as I plan to take the printing class next and later fill in the middle with a film development class. I can’t wait to see my first role of film since 2006! The area is also fantastic for the photo walk - so many interesting things to see and photograph."

  • "Daniel and Stacy are super knowledgeable and the workshop was great! I look forward to continue learning the various process of film. I highly recommend it!"

  • "Wonderful people who love film and want it to live forever. Really enjoyed my first workshop and cannot wait to attend the next! If you want to learn how to properly work a film camera and learn some interesting history about photography... sign up!"

    — ANDREA MCCRACKEN, GOOGLE REVIEW

  • "Phoenix Film Revival has, pun intended, revived my love of film photography. Being able to have a local spot to print, develop, and experiment is great! It’s too much hassle setting up in a bathroom and doing it alone can be difficult. Daniel has really created a wonderful space in the heart of Phoenix’s art community and I look forward to every time I can make it down. To top it off, PFR is the only local place to get slide film processed! Amazing!"

    — DAVID VENEZIA, GOOGLE REVIEW

  • "I signed up for PFR thinking I was just going to get a crash course in making a darkroom print. However, this was not the case. Thanks to Dan’s guidance I received more of an insight on how to be a better photographer through the analog printing process than I could have imagined.”

    — JEREMY HOCHGRAVER, GOOGLE REVIEW

  • "This is seriously my favorite place! For years, I’ve wanted a place I can go do darkroom developing and printing without having to commit to the time of a school course. Dan is incredibly nice and so passionate about film. The space is perfectly intimate and relaxing and truly an amazing place for people who love film to come together in the Phoenix area. I tell everyone about it because it is an absolute diamond in the rough and SO important in keeping film alive."
