Teen Photographic Workshop: Capturing Light Through the Lens
Workshop Overview
Light is at the heart of every photograph—without it, there’s no image. In this hands-on teen workshop, we’ll explore how cameras capture light, and how different choices—angle, exposure, shadows, reflections—can transform the way we see the world.
Through guided activities, outdoor shooting, and creative challenges, participants will learn how to use light not only to take pictures but to make art. Teens will discover how the camera “sees” differently than our eyes, and how playing with light can tell powerful visual stories.
✨ Workshop Theme: Capturing Light
Light shapes everything—from golden sunsets and neon glows to reflections in glass and shadows on walls. In this workshop, we’ll uncover the science and the art of light in photography.
We’ll ask questions like:
-
How does a camera record light differently from our eyes?
-
How do shadows, highlights, and reflections change a mood?
-
How can you use light to tell your own story?
