Are you interested in photography? The Photo Club’s first meeting will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 15 in room B206 from 3:15 to 4:15 p.m. The club is advised by Dayna Hansen, who also teaches Photography 1 and Photography 2 in addition to other art classes. First meeting during the 2021-2022 school year, the Photo Club was started to give students more opportunities to hone their photography skills.

Students will take their photos either on their phones or a provided digital camera. Hansen says that they take photos around the community and projects include prints and holiday-themed shoots. This month, they will be working on a collage. The club usually meets for an hour after school once or twice a month.

Dayna Hansen says that her favorite part of photo club is “The enthusiasm of the students and the community of students are very open and welcoming. It’s a warm, fun place where they can express themselves and their personalities. They can also become better leaders in smaller groups.”

Olive Rodemann, president of the Photo Club, says “We do a lot of really interesting projects in the club that you wouldn’t do in an average photo class. Last year we did cyanotypes and we were planning on doing a trip to the Lakeview Cemetery which we likely do this year. There are a lot of creative people that go to the club and there isn’t much we do in the club that you could find in a conventional art class. The main focus is experimentation and having fun!”
