"We love partnering with the team at Youth in Focus to photograph some of our education and community engagement events!"
The student photographers we’ve worked with have been professional and delivered us quality images that beautifully capture the joy, energy, and community building in our programs. The photography mentors work fluidly with their student mentees, giving them space to learn how to work with clients while also capturing additional photos throughout the event to ensure we have more than enough photo options. This program allows us to invest in young pre-professional photographers in collaboration with a program which truly sets the students up for success. We look forward to every opportunity to work with Youth in Focus and supporting this generation’s emerging artists.
