Hi, we're the PS 889 Photography Club! 

We are proud to showcase the work of PS 889’s first ever Photo Club! The year’s mission was simple: supply students with their own cameras and a foundational knowledge of photography.

They learned about composition, ISO, aperture, the rule of thirds, and shutter speed – basically, all the ways a smartphone’s camera was derived from a good, old-fashioned analog camera.

Students discussed on a weekly basis what inspires good photography and were encouraged to be observant in their own lives and environment. They studied some of the works of esteemed photographers like Bill Cunningham, Vivian Maier, Bruce Talamon, and Gordon Parks.

Please enjoy our photos!
