Students' Testimonials
The best creative decision I made last year
"when I discovered and followed the wonderful Alternative Processes @alternativeprocesses account on Instagram, my eyes were opened to a whole new array of creative possibilities. My decision to join Chiara’s Alternative Processes Academy at the start of 2023 was arguably the best creative decision I made last year."

With the Academy’s help, I was awarded a Distinction
"I used The Academy to inform my practice-led MA Photography, and with Chiara’s help, was awarded a Distinction. It has the perfect combination of technical, step-by-step process together with inspiration around what can be achieved with alternative processes. Sustainable photography does not have to be second-best. The Academy saved me hours and hours of scrolling through YouTube trying to find the exact techniques I needed: the videos are concise and to the point, well organised and logical. "
━ Emma Davies
This course has been crucial
"Thanks to this course, my work became more technical and structured. Previously, I was experimenting but lacked a clear guideline. Thanks to APA, I have learned how to use mordants and which ones to choose, I am continuously learning and experimenting. Now, I am working on a project that merges the cyanotype technique with watergrams, and this course has been crucial."
