Welcome to BFF Youth Photography Club!
This club is designed for youth ages K-12. It can be easily adapted to your skill level. It’s meant to be a fun way to connect with others and practice your photography skills. Each month we will choose a theme for the challenge. You can also suggest themes for future photo challenges when you submit your photos each month.We will compile submissions into a photo album and share on our Facebook page. We are so excited to see and share what you capture with the camera! If you have questions contact: laura@bffomaha.org Submissions HERE This month's prompt: "These are a few of my favorite things" Tell us a little about yourself by taking photos of some of your favorite things. Maybe you love legos, skateboarding, and pancakes- that’s AWESOME! Whatever it is that brings you joy, we at BFF would love to see. |
