Pirate Pics Photo Workshop

Have fun learning Photography

Pirate Pics is an after school photography workshop. This is a non technical hands on class based on discovery and exploration using cameras in the field (on and off campus) and digital imaging software (Adobe Photoshop) in the lab. Students explore the tools and uses of photography while enjoying the ‘free time’ to ‘play’ with the various opportunities offered through the subject areas offered.

Fun & Valuable Career Skills are here

Join in the fun as our OHS Pirate Pics students enjoy learning tips, tricks and techniques from the pros in this award winning after school photo work shop each Tuesday from 2:30 – 4:30 in the OHS Digital Studio. ohs.oside.us/pp

Here teachers Zach Cordner and Paul Ruez thank legendary skate photographer @jgrantbrittain who came to our Oceanside High #PiratePics after school photography class for a shoot with OHS students at Prince Park. Thanks to @jtrhoades (OHS Digital Studio alumni) and @1800bobbylong for helping us recreate a famous Transworld Skateboarding magazine cover that Grant took of @jamiethomas over a decade ago. @ Prince Park”
