About This Activity
The Introduction to Photography class will be a fun and interactive fifteen week course covering three main categories: Expression, Perspective/Composition, and Skill. The course will also cover a brief history of photography and explore the works of thirteen famous photographers including greats such as Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, Annie Leibovitz and Jay Maisel. An emphasis will be placed on hands on learning and exploring (we’ll make a camera out of an empty Pringles can on week 1!) and students will be expected to practice assignments during the week and turn in one photo per week for class critique. Any camera available to the student, including cell phone cameras, will work. If possible, we will take a field trip to a local museum before the end of the semester. This class will be sufficient for ½ credit in Fine Arts. Nancy is a priest’s wife and mom of seven ages 27 to 10. She has been homeschooling for almost 25 years. The first five have graduated and gone on to college and careers and she will have one high schooler and a 6th grader in the fall. She took her first photography class through her local 4H club at the age of 10. She was on her high school yearbook team and worked as lifestyle editor and photographer for a newspaper in Waxahachie, Texas, after college and until her oldest was 10 months old. She has taught photography and other classes at local co-ops and worked as a tutor and director for Classical Conversations for three years. The Intro to Photography class is one of her favorites and she is excited to help more students learn to express themselves through the art of photography.
