Funded Aug 19, 2021The lighting equipment we received has provided students with the ability to use lighting in the classroom setting and out on shoots in the community. We have never had the ability to use lighting in the field, which is a key requirement of a professional photographer.
The kids were so excited to get the lighting equipment, it arrived just in time for homecoming and their homecoming royalty shoot. It provided them with new challenges of setting the lighting just right but they quickly figured out the perfect setting and produced great pictures.
When we return from Christmas we will be working on a professional headshot photography unit which will test their skills in the classroom and in the field. They will have the opportunity to work with local businesses and provide them with headshots.
Students are also preparing for senior projects where they provide free senior sessions for students who want them. Real-life situations help prepare them for the workforce. Thank you for providing equipment that allows them to do the things professional photographers do.”
With gratitude,
