For many photographers, the print is the ultimate expression of one’s art, and mastering printing is an art in and of itself. At Santa Fe Workshops, we are lucky to have a master printer, Cotton Miller, on staff. Cotton was a principle printer at Blazing Editions for several years before coming to Santa Fe Workshops. If you want to master the alchemy of digital printing, come to The Workshops and learn from Cotton, or one of our world-renowned digital printing masters.
