Students will learn the fundamentals of digital photography, covering composition techniques, lighting principles, and lens usage. They will explore abstract photography, master portrait techniques, experiment with special effects, and capture still-life images. This hands-on experience includes engaging activities such as photography and lighting challenges, along with photo critiques. The program culminates in a contest where students present their best photo, and the class votes for the winner. A DSLR camera (or equivalent) is required to attend—smartphones are not allowed.
