Polaroid Emulsion Transfers

What would happen if one of your favorite Polaroid pictures accidentally slipped out from under a stove magnet and into a pot of boiling spaghetti?

Masterpiece Membership with Jim Miotke

The results might be something like the images below. With Polaroid emulsion transfers, you actually cook the image off of the Polaroid and place it on practically anything you want.

To learn how, take Kathleen Carr's online photography course Polaroid Image and Emulsion Transfers.

To Learn How to Make Your Own Polaroid Emulsion Transfers...
If you would like to learn more, consider signing up for Kathleen Carr's creative and fun online photo course:

Alternatively, Kathleen has written two excellent guidebooks on the subject:

Polaroid Transfers: A Complete Visual Guide to Creating Image and Emulsion Transfers, by Kathleen Thormod Carr Polaroid Manipulations: A Complete Visual Guide to Creating SX-70, Transfer, and Digital Prints, by Kathleen Thormod Carr

These guides will show you how to create emulsion transfers like those above - as well as Polaroid image transfers. This latter process is slightly different - where you peel apart the Polaroid before it has a chance to develop and transfer the image onto a receptive surface. Visit our Polaroid Image Transfers page to see examples of this process.

If you shoot with a digital camera, you too can now enjoy the creative art of Polaroid Transfer. You no longer need to work with slides. Now, with the Daylab Copy System, you can simply print off your favorite digital file and use this device to transfer it to Polaroid film. Learn more at our Daylab Copy System page.
