This intensive course introduces students to the style, form, and content of documentary photography.

Field trips to New York City sharpen the student’s visual and critical skills.

Notes: Students must supply their own digital camera with manual controls and materials. A DSLR is highly recommended.
Prerequisites: ART 133 Photography 1  or  ART 129 Digital Photography 1 .
Offered every semester.
