The Youth in Focus Freelance Project
Photographic Services
The Freelance Project is the job-training program at Youth in Focus. It is designed to help our students further their professional opportunities while developing their photography skills. Students work as freelance photographers for Youth in Focus as we partner with other non-profits, individuals and corporations.
Participants in the Freelance Project photograph all over Seattle and earn money while doing it. Through this project, Youth in Focus is able to offer low cost photographic services to fill the visual imagery needs of just about anyone. Our student freelance photographers photograph for newsletters, websites, books, art exhibits, annual reports, documentaries or events as well as take portraits of individuals, families and kids of all ages. The youth do all of the shooting, post-production, printing, processing and developing. By partnering with us you provide an opportunity for these youth to gain valuable work experience, hone their photographic skills, get on the job training and learn more about the community they live in.
For every assignment, the student photographers are paired up with a professional photographer who accompanies them to the location. The mentors are there to support, assist, and guide the youth as they photograph the assignment.
