Photography is writing with light     •     Photographers seek light      •     Fireflies ARE light         

 

We named our women's photo camp 'Firefly Institute' to reflect a summertime playful mood (Firefly), with serious photography instruction (Institute), and because fireflies own their own light.

We believe that photographs can repair the world by adding beauty, bringing awareness, and shining light, both our own and what we express on the other side of the lens. 

We believe that photographers work with powerful tools: our cameras and our hearts. Let's make some magic with light and time!

 

SEEK LIGHT - BE LIGHT - SHINE LIGHT
