SWON Libraries Consortium

Photography for Teens includes two introductory resources for teens interested in taking their photography beyond simple point and click. Volume 1, Setting Up the Shot, provides great examples for making attractive and interesting photographs. Volume 2, Taking the Shot, introduces readers to the mechanics of photography; including the variety of cameras available and lighting a shot. At some points technical, these books provide a step-by-step guide for capturing stunning photographs. There are plenty of example photographs to inspire teens, whether they are goofing around with friends or looking to capture memories while on vacation. Libraries looking to enhance their teen nonfiction collection or with a population of teens with a high interest in art or photography will appreciate these simple but helpful resources.
