Awareness Photography

A creative approach in utilizing the art of photography as a tool to explore and tell a story can be a positive outlet for challenging situations. Embarking on a photographic journey is a form of self expression, an awareness of the beauty of our natural environment, a way to find enjoyment and make sense of complicated world.
Discover the beauty of the world and watch the creative eye unfold.

"The process of Photography fully immerses us in an energized focus. It creates an awareness by observing our surroundings and draws us into a peaceful meditative state. We begin to see the little things and how they may relate to our lives which can provide a creative healthy outlet in our journey of healing. It’s mindfulness, a tool on how we interpret the world around us. Photography is a way of choice as to what you wish to focus, compose and what you choose to
​leave out of the frame...a way of healing!"

Digital Photography

Photography as a form of visual storytelling can incite emotions and send a message. This is a great way for kids to explore their lives, opt for the outdoors and share their work in a powerful and positive way. Our workshops teach the art of photography as well as storytelling with imagery. 
Nurture your creative spirit, look beyond the obvious and hone your vision for creating optimal imagery. Based on one’s knowledge and experience, we teach basic to advance levels of photography and camera mechanics.

Pinhole Photography

Jump back into the roots of photography with one of the most authentic ways to capture a photographic image, the Pinhole Camera. Without a lens but a tiny aperture, the pinhole camera is a simple lightproof box where light passes through the aperture from a scene you are capturing and projects an image on film or photographic paper. Pinhole images are not as sharp as images with a camera lens and the size of the pinhole will determine the sharpness of the final image (smaller pinholes are sharper than larger pinholes). 
Pinhole photography provides  a rich artistic learning experience and skills that can be used in everyday life such as learning by doing and making decisions along the way. You engage in your explorations by capturing what you feel and not necessarily what you see as you will never know exactly what you will get until you see the developed image.  History of the pinhole dates back to 300 B.C. and in the 16th century Italian polymath, Leonardo Da Vinci  documented a description on how the camera obscure (pinhole camera) works.

Insta Camera

We are filled with instant gratification daily, but how do we transcend this to a meaningful experience? We capture our photographic images and create a reflection of discovering ourselves, finding who we are, our truth!
Being creative with instant results
In this world where everything is instant, we tend to become accustomed to the fast-paced lifestyle and lose the essence of "time." However, looking beyond and being creative with the instant cameras can build upon patience and awareness of our environment.
Insta and digital cameras provide instant results and lifetime reflections of our unfolding journey!
