Starsnappers - Photography Workshop

Last week, the children of Manford Primary School were very fortunate to have a professional photographer and model work with them during a photography workshop.

The Starsnappers workshop showed the children the best way to pose for a picture and discussed portraiture and identity in images. The children were also given an introduction to the work of a photographer and photography, including the world of digital imaging.

However, the main part of the workshop involved the children photographing each other! They were able to photograph themselves and each other, composing the shot and clicking the shutter.
The children had a great time wearing silly hats and pulling funny faces... even the teachers had to have a go!

The photos will be used as part of Starsnappers project to break a Guiness World Record for the biggest photographic exhibition in history! This will be displayed in a glalery in London in the future. The date is unknown yet, but once we know we shall post it onto the blog.... so keep an eye out!
