Girl Scout Digital Photographer Badge
GIRL SCOUT DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHER BADGE
JUNIORS 4th-5th Grade, ANY SKILL LEVEL
ONE DAY, ONE HOUR CLASS

Thanks to cell phones and the like, cameras are everywhere, and if you want your photos to stand above the rest, you need to know how to shoot properly. This class teaches the basics of photography, including framing and lighting shots, and various camera settings. The Apple Store doesn’t teach them any of this so you get more value from my class, plus NO wait list! The best part is that I come to your troop to teach this!

After registration, we will work out a time/date for the class. A couple of days before class, I will email you the class link (Zoom) as well as a PDF for them to print out. This email is forwarded to the parents.

I will open up the class about ten minutes before start time. Content wise I'll be teaching exactly the same thing as I do for the in person classes. Once class is over, I will email you an invoice for payment through SQUARE, the same credit card processing system that I use if I came physically to your troop meeting for class. I wait till day of class to send invoice in order to get an accurate head count.

1) Each girl needs a large screen display (laptop, desktop, tablet) so they can see what I'm drawing or showing. (no cellphones, if possible.) A camera on the device is also needed so I can see them in return.

2) High speed internet is a must for everyone.

3) PHOTOGRAPHY / DIGITAL MOVIEMAKER BADGES: A secondary device for them to take and edit photos/videos during class. (can't use same device they are watching the class from.)

4) COMIC ARTIST BADGE: Each girl needs paper, pencils, and colored pencils or similar. I will also provide a PDF to send to parents to print worksheets for class.

5) DRAWING BADGE: Each girl needs paper, pencil, a ruler, an ink pen (or sharpie), and colored pencils and one other drawing implement for the homework. I will also provide a PDF to send to parents to print worksheets for class.

Yes, it's the same price regardless if it's online or in a physical building. The only difference is my "coverage" map located on each class page no longer applies (as well as gas fees) as I can now teach these to troops across the United States.

The minimum number of girls to hold an online class is three and the max is twenty, BUT, if it's more than twenty, please CONTACT me and we'll work something out logistically.

Absolutely! I've taught photography to Ambassador level Girlscouts and "How To Draw" classes to Daisies. Please CONTACT me and we'll work something out!

I wait till the day of class to get an accurate head count as sometimes not everyone shows up. Once class is concluded I will email you an invoice from SQUARE, the same credit card processing center that I use if I were to physically come to your meeting to teach class.


Absolutely! Each troop has to register separately, so have the other leaders put in the notes section that they are teaming up with your troop and give your name and troop number so I can connect the dots.

Here is my coverage map for driving distance. Green zone = No extra charge. Yellow zone = $10 additional gas fee. Red zone = As of June 2021 I no longer drive to the red zone or beyond. Please take the live ONLINE version of these classes instead! Same content and same registration form.

YES but finding badges I'm capable of teaching can be difficult. There are several factors in finding one that works, including the right mix of what I teach (and feel comfortable teaching) versus what their homework is, and several other factors.

Unfortunately, no because the art supply costs are too high.

Yes, but not in supplies. I will email you specifics after you sign up.

You pay the day of class and when I'm finished teaching. That way we will know the exact head count as often times some girls don't show up. I accept cash or credit card. No checks please.
