The Photo essay is a collection of images that are stylistically or thematically unified in order to tell a story. We will explore the idea of story and how to capture the audience and tell a particular tale. The class will cover basic photography, and the students will be able to tell a fiction or non-fiction story. The class will shoot on 35mm cameras, and we will critique and discuss each other’s work, as well as looking at master photographers’ works and essayists. The year will end with a final gallery showing of the students’ work.

This video was my favorite of all the ones that I watched. While watching it, I was really impacted by the feelings that those women were having. I want my photo essay to have an impact, but without words helping. I just want images, and no words. This video without the words isn't much. The pictures are okay, but without narration wouldn't have as much of an impact.
