Darkroom and Digital Photography

Students learn the complete workings of a camera and study a variety of film, digital, and shooting processes. Work reflects an understanding of design principles as well as an understanding of photographic processes and techniques. Students present original images and portfolios.
"Art classes at Archmere have taught me to test my limits and grow in perspective. I have learned how to express myself through art and in other ways, and I am so grateful for the teachers that taught me how to do so."​
