About us
Mission:
Our mission is to publish impactful and meaningful photography work from high school photographers of all backgrounds. We believe that the wealth of significant photography produced by high schoolers worldwide is greatly underappreciated. We hope to change this underappreciation
Our vision:
We recognize that photography can often be a deeply solitary and introspective endeavor. We wish for our journal to serve as a platform for high school photographers to express own personal meaning through their photography and personal statements; we hope that this broader platform facilitates a productive and interactive discourse surrounding photography among young photographers nationwide.
