Throughout the Academy season, photographers:
~ strengthen their camera skills
~ learn from working professionals
~ explore different photography specialties
~ participate in hands-on experiences and field trips
~ build their portfolios
~ earn achievement patches
~ discover how their creativity can become something they’re proud to share—and even sell.
Students can join the Academy after completing Foundations, with new opportunities to jump in throughout the season.
