This week at After School Photography Clubs the kids have been thinking about and photographing what they love.

Next week is Half Term but it’s also Valentines Day, so we decided to base this weeks theme around ‘I love’. We asked the kids to think about things that they love. This could be things they love about themselves (how they look, what they’re good at), things they love doing, people they love etc. The idea of this theme is to encourage positivity in our students and to get them to photograph their attributes creatively. 

This week we showed the children photographs by famous photographers Andy Gott, Julian Finney and Sandro Miller to give them some ideas about how to photograph what they love.

We first asked the children to think about and write down 10 things that they love. Here are a few of their lists:

 

 

 

 

 

 

We then asked them to think about how they could represent those things through their photographs. Some of them were quite challenging but they did really well! Here are our Sharp Shooters for this week:

Jake – ‘I love nature’

Niamh – ‘I love sport’
