Photography Major

You find the bright and beautiful in the everyday.

You’ll come to CCAD with creative talent, an Instagram account with hundreds of photos and a point of view that’s all your own. In our Photography program, our studios will be your stage, set, playground and laboratory. You’ll draw influence from energetic peers, our experienced faculty and our collaborative atmosphere. You'll use the best gear and the latest software. You'll learn about your aesthetic and how you can market yourself. You’ll leave our program well-versed in multiple photographic formats, a master of darkroom work and cutting-edge digital editing. You may go on to start your own studio, work full-time for a major publication or document the world in a completely different way.
