Rob Tucher, one Monalog’s members, recently moved into a new and large space to support his photographic work and created a logical outgrowth of what Monalog has stood for … the Center for Analog Monochromatic Photography … or CAMP. CAMP’s mission will be to support the healthy existence of black and white film photography and traditional printing processes and to serve as a home to those that wish to work in this wonderful medium. In support of this mission, CAMP will provide a range of learning opportunities including workshops, lectures and critiques, and will house a fully functioning black and white darkroom available to the public and the Last Look Gallery that will showcase the work of talented and important black and white analog photographers. CAMP will be the only organization of its type, serving the Pennsylvania Lehigh Valley and the broader black and white analog communities by bringing together like-minded photographers and supporting their growth and engagement with others through education programing and photographic exhibits. Finally, CAMP will provide opportunities to work with photographers individually and through collaborative activity.
After a lot of hard work and personal expense, Rob is ready to open CAMP with an inaugural exhibit at the Last Look Gallery, showcasing the work of Monlog’s members. We are very excited about our exhibit and CAMP’s kickoff, and know that this will be the beginning of something special!
The show’s opening reception is this coming Saturday, May 9th, from 5pm to 8pm. The address is 1005 Palmer Street, Easton, Pennsylvania.
The show runs from May 9th to July 11th on Saturdays 12-5pm and by appointment.

The Monalog Collective is a group of like-minded photographers formed to promote traditional analog black-and-white photography and the industry that supports it. This exhibition of photographs, made by nine Monalog Collective Members, includes modern and historic applications of traditional emulsion-based processes. All images are original and hand-made by the artist. Each photographer has selected a specific process that best captures and expresses their vision of and feelings for a desired subject which is then revealed and shared via the finished print.
