Oh Snap! Photography Camp
AJP is excited to host its Oh Snap! Photography Camp at The Steward School’s Summer Experience, and will teach students (Grades 6-12) the basics of photography.
Aspiring shutterbugs will learn about the exposure triangle, white balance, resolution, and megapixels. We’ll discuss how to capture an image that speaks a thousand words. Daily adventures coupled with in-class discussions will help you master your camera settings and develop a creative eye.
