One of the best things about teaching photography to kids is observing how they see the world. They see things in a different way, and this helps freshen my own perspective.

Photography has long been a passion of mine, and I am in the habit of looking at the little details to see what compositions I can make. Being around children with cameras opens up the world even more.

Seeing their excitement as they share photos they have taken helps, too. It is a reminder of that sense of discovery and creativity that come from making pictures.

Although I am teaching, I am learning as well.
