FAQ

  • WHAT TIME DOES CAMP START/END?

  • WHAT IS THE AGE RANGE OF OUR SUMMER CAMP?

    We welcome our youth ages 12 - 18 years old during any of our classes during the summer and year round! Students will work together with students their age throughout the week and we also encourage students to mentor one another no matter their age!

    *** We also have CIT positions available for students who are at least 18 years old! Please reach out via email to get more information!

  • WHAT KIND OF CAMERA DOES MY STUDENT NEED FOR CAMP?

    Students will need a DSLR or Mirrorless camera with the capability of manually adjusting the aperture, shutter speed, and ISO.

    We do have cameras available to rent for a small fee for the week so you can try it out before committing to a camera!

  • DO YOU PROVIDE CAMERAS FOR THE STUDENTS JOINING CAMP?

    Our program offers the option to rent a camera for the entire week of class for a very affordable price that allows us to share high-quality DSLR cameras with students who may not have them already. This option can be added on at registration! Please email us if you need more information!

  • WHAT WILL MY STUDENT NEED TO BRING TO CAMP?

    We will send a full list of items with your orientation packet! They will need to bring their own camera (unless renting from our school) and a laptop to our studio days.

  • WHERE IS DROP OFF/PICK UP?

    Our drop-off and pick-up locations vary by week so we can travel to some of the most amazing places throughout the program! All drop-off/pick-up locations can be found in the class descriptions!

    Places we’ll go: Lands End, Golden Gate Park, Tilden Regional Park, Downtown SF, Chinatown and so much more! We add new locations every year!

  • CAN I SIGN UP FOR MULTIPLE WEEKS OVER THE SUMMER?

    Absolutely! We encourage students to take multiple weeks of our program because the best way we believe to learn photography and master your skills is through EXPERIENCE! We even have students come back year after year because the program is always changing and adaptable!

  • DOES MY STUDENT NEED TO HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH PHOTOGRAPHY?

    Nope! We offer beginner classes that help get our students started with all of the basics. You’ll be surprised how fast they learn along the way as a program takes them out into the field and gets them practicing right off the get-go!

    Before signing up for an intermediate-level summer camp program, we recommend taking a workshop or doing a few private lessons to jump-start their success behind the camera!
