Photo Supplies for At-Risk Students
Donation protected
Hi! I'm Lela Witherspoon, art/photo teacher at Del Valle Continuation High School in Livermore, California. Our students are good people, who for whatever reason were not successful at the comprehesive high schools. They come to us at Del Valle for a second chance.
This photo program is designed to be more like a trade school, with an emphasis in professionalism and the skills needed to be sucessful event and portrait photographers. My dream is for them to leave my classroom with the tools necessary to create their own full-time or part-time business. I plan to cover all necessary topics, taxes, websites, photo releases, copyright, equipment, self-promotion, and of course, all the important elements of taking good photos.
This money is for starting a photo program from scratch. I need at least 5-7 dSLR cameras, (Canon T5's, ~$440) 2 or 3 computers (~$1,100 each), and Adobe Lightroom (~$120 yearly). I would love to finish this gofundme by the next school year, so I can start the year strong with new quipment.
Thank you!
