Instructor Bio

Instructor Rory Earnshaw

Rory Earnshaw started taking photographs as a boy in rural Scotland. 

Photography since then has been a way to see extraordinary things in everyday objects and places. After twenty five years as a commercial photographer he still makes time to work on the black and white images that inspire him so much.

Rory’s intimate prints explore the quiet, minimalist beauty of the landscape. Shooting only with film and often with a large-format camera, he takes advantage of the slow and deliberate process of classic silver gelatin darkroom printing and toning. Rory’s photography has been featured in a number of exhibitions including solo shows at the San Francisco MoMA Artist’s Gallery and The Image Flow.
