Summer Photography Camp
July 6 - 9, 2020  (4 days, Monday - Thursday)

Elboya Heights Britannia Community Hall
416 Park Ave SW
For 13-16 year olds

Price:  $400 plus gst (Invoice will be sent after registration)

The 5 day camp will be held the week of July 6thth. It will run from 10am – 4pm from Monday through Thursday.  (the teens told me they'd like to sleep in!!)  This particular camp is for 13-16 year olds.

It will take place at Elboya Heights/ Britannia Community Hall. We will have a great combination of indoor and outdoor time as hall is right at the western edge of Stanley Park.

In the course, we will cover lots of ground!! My goal is for your kids to be comfortably moving in manual mode on their cameras by the end of the camp. I believe the best way to learn photography is hands-on, so there will be lots of time to practice the new concepts we will learn and discuss together. I bring in lots of different ways to learn: slideshows, games, examples, challenges, discussions, critiques, and some methods I probably haven’t even thought up yet! Together, we will be talking lots about frame composition, creative techniques, aperture, shutter speeds, ISO and lots more… all while expressing ourselves with this beautiful medium of digital film. The participants will come out of the camp with the confidence and skills to work their camera as well as matted prints, art projects featuring their images and a folder of their digital images that will be sent your way.

I will be joined by another lovely young lady, Alecia, for the week. I strongly believe in the power of displaying our kids work so Alecia will be working with your kids photographs to create stunning art pieces. She is in the process of completing her education degree at the University of Calgary and has told me how grateful she is to be pursuing a life practice wherein she can be inspired by the young people of this world. She was at the camps last year and was a complete rockstar, so I am super excited for her to be part of our camp again!!

At the end of the camp, we will be showing off our work in a Photo Gala on the Thursday afternoon.

A camera which has manual mode is required. A DSLR is recommended but not necessary. Lunch will need to be provided by yourselves (not included in the camp). And the most important requirements; an open mind, positive attitude and desire to learn!!
