What a great summer for photography! In June and July high school students escaped the heat and came to Art Intersection to learn the basics of photography, expand their skills, and build portfolios. Each week teens from all over the valley worked with Art Intersection staff and volunteers to create finished works of art.
During the Exploring Photography camp, teens were introduced to the foundational elements of photography. Students experienced a hands-on approach to learning several different methods of image capture and printing using both digital and analog photographic practices.
The Advanced Photography students explored a wide variety of specialized techniques such as large format photography, gelatin silver print toning, stop-motion animation, and lumen printing. By the end of the week these teens were armed with an arsenal of new media to expand their photographic repertoire.
