Focus on Student Learning

Studio Photography

In this Middle School elective, we are learning through exploration how to take beautiful photos in a studio environment. We have learned how the camera works and how to control it to get the image we want. We have also experimented with lights seeing how they affect the look and feel of our photos. Every week, we watch a video on a camera technique, try the technique out by taking many photos, and then we share our photos with each other.
