Camp Get-A-Way

Camp Get-A-Way is a summer camp held in several locations across New York. They provide the summer camp experience to families with children who have emotional, behavioral, or mental health challenges. Trained leadership and staff offer children classic camp activities that are designed for them and lead parent workshops on how to support children with diverse needs. I partnered with them to provide photography for their website update and brand launch.

Working with children who had a wide range of emotional capacities and varying comfort levels with new people and places, it was important to build connection as a stranger with a camera. I documented the journey, experience, and emotion of individuals and families, helping them to relax and show their real selves to the camera. I kept the feel natural and journalistic to highlight that—come as you are; camp really is for everyone.
