Photography to Grow
A Practical Guide to Teaching Photography in Childhood and Adolescence
Amparo Muñoz Morellà
In Photography to Grow, you’ll find all the tools you need to run a creative photography workshop for children and teens: theory, practical content, inspiration, and activities.
Using the same techniques as contemporary creators and artists, you’ll discover creative tactics, strategies to enhance visual literacy, and plenty of ideas to launch first photographic projects.
This is not meant to be a rigid method or an in-depth essay on the topic. In this book, you’ll find:
- A guide to discovering a world full of possibilities using photography as an educational tool.
- A path for you to start your own way of telling stories to young minds.
- A small collection of notes, tips, and reflections on teaching photography, with the goal of nurturing the gaze and creativity.
We live immersed in the image society—we consume and create images without thinking, without any expressive or critical intent.
How do we educate the way we look at what we produce and consume?
There are very few photography workshops aimed at young people. The world needs lovers of photography and photographic expression. You hold in your hands the tools to design an authentic and personal workshop that will stand out—no one else will do it like you.
I hope you’ll walk alongside those brave groups who will share their gazes and their worlds with you. Be present for what they need, for their questions and their journeys—but above all, teach them to see and to create a better world.
