Photography

MISSION STATEMENT

This course mission is to provided basic information for students interested in photography.  Instruction includes discussions of photo equipment and terminology plus a historical overview of photography’s development from the mid-1800s.  Students will use Canon Digital Single Lens Reflex cameras provided by the school.  The use of student personal equipment is permitted.

In addition to the regular classroom teacher, students will interact with “Peer Instructors” who are advanced students and who will provide guidance and support for the new students. Students will also showcase their talent through exhibitions and photo contests.

Advanced Photography students or Staff will pursue their own photographic interests under the guidance and advice of the instructor.  In addition, these students also serve as “Peer Instructors” for the beginning students and  will also be responsible for serving the school by photographically covering all school activities and events.
