Kidz N Cameras

06/18/2026

Today, our Kidz N Cameras Summer Camp photographers presented their final projects and shared the stories behind their images. 📸

Over the past four days, these young creatives learned camera fundamentals, composition, manual mode, and most importantly—how to use photography as a tool for storytelling and self-expression.

Each project was more than a collection of photos. It was their perspective, their voice, and their way of showing us what community means to them.

We're incredibly proud of their growth, creativity, and courage to share their work.

The future is bright, and these young photographers are just getting started.

⚡ Photography Tip ⚡

Great photography starts with observation.

Last night, I spent time watching the storm and waiting for the right moment. Sometimes the best photos come from being patient and paying attention to what's happening around you.

For those curious about how this image was captured, I used a tripod, a shutter speed between 6–10 seconds, and an aperture of around f/11.

Don't have a DSLR? That's okay. You can still practice observation, timing, and creativity with a phone camera. Photography is less about the gear and more about learning to see the world differently.

Don’t create barriers for yourself by feeling like everything has to be perfect—whether in photography or in life. Growth comes from showing up, making mistakes, and learning as you go, not from waiting for the “perfect” moment.

Don’t get discouraged when taking photos. Photographers usually only show their best work. For every 3 great photos, there may be hundreds of shots that didn’t turn out how they wanted. The key is to keep practicing—your skills will grow over time.
