The Exceptional Photography Club works in partnership with Special Portraits and the Exceptional Families Network to teach photography skills to children with special needs.
We offer monthly photo walks, an online Facebook group, photography classes, competition sponsorships, and professional critique to our members. We put the focus on ability rather than disability. We teach the essential skills and encourage creativity and our kids take what they learn and run with it. Our kids have won multiple awards in local competitions and their self-esteem and confidence grows with every ribbon they earn. Support for the kids is not limited to the photo walks and classes. They are able to ask questions and share their photos at any time via the online Facebook group.
Currently, we need donations to cover digital cameras, SD cards, batteries, camera accessories, photo paper, ink, competition entry fees, and professional printing and mounting of photographs. Many of these kids do not have access to digital cameras and are using tablets or phones with subpar cameras. We currently loan out the few cameras we have but there are not enough to go around. Eventually we'd like to be able to gift cameras to our students. If you prefer to donate some of the needed items rather than a monetary donation we would accept those gratefully. You can arrange to donate items by emailing Crystal Malta at specialneedsportraits@gmail.com.
Entering photographs for competition can also get expensive. It can cost anywhere from $5 to $20 per photograph to enter after paying entry fees and printing and mounting their photographs.
We would love your support so we can offer higher quality education to even more kids with special needs. Please donate now!
