iPhoneography – a workshop

Have you recently purchased an iPhone?
Have you owned an iPhone for a while and are curious about the editing power it contains?
Are you new to photography and want to get some pointers on where to start?
Are you an avid photographer looking to embrace the power of such a small device? This may be the workshop for you!

Sharing: We’ll talk about social media and getting the work out there

About Youth in Focus:

For several months I have been mentoring at Youth in Focus, in their Beginning Digital class, of which Zorn teaches. It’s been an amazing opportunity to meet some great kids, see the world through their eyes and help coach them through their own photographic journeys.

Youth in Focus is an afterschool program that uses intensive photography training as a tool to help disadvantaged teens develop personal voice, positive identity, social skills and artistic skills. We offer free, multi-level classes for teens ages 13-19 in both film and digital photography, and advanced students participate in our job skills project shooting assignments for hire. Classes are taught by professional teaching artists and supported by volunteer adult mentors. In this way we create a community of support around our students that both encourages and challenges them on their journey to a positive adulthood.
