Day One of Zoom Photography Camp for Kids!!

Zoom Camp Week has finally arrived!! Whoohoo!! Today was Day One and what a great day we had!! We have 4 "campers" (unfortunately, we had a last minute cancellation of our fifth camper) who arrived ready and eager to learn!! You can see them below...Coltra, Bennett, Kate and Carly!
After meeting in the studio and getting to know each other for awhile, we ventured across the street to Mears Park. It was a perfect afternoon to photograph outdoors....warm, a little overcast and no wind! Today's topic included perspective so the campers experimented at the park photographing from different perspectives....high/low, up close/far away, etc.




Seeing how the campers used perspectives to "tell a story" even showed Melissa and I different and unique ways to photograph in the park....we may be using these in upcoming photo sessions, you never know!
This motley crew of figurines were our "models" today as we asked the campers photograph them from many different angles to demonstrate perspective. You may be seeing more of these guys this week!
Camp wouldn't be camp without the fun, camp games we all love!! Our day included popping balloons to find hidden messages inside as a way to get to know each other!! Super fun!!
The campers will have lots of images to share and we will be posting some of them next week after their Art Show...more on that to come!!
