TeenPact National Convention 2021
TeenPact is a nonprofit ministry that seeks to disciple teens in their faith and train them to be godly leaders. They hold several events throughout the spring and summer months, culminating with National Convention. This weeklong event has over 1000 people in attendance, participating in mock elections, sports tournaments, sessions, worship, small groups, and more.
For the past five years, I have led the photography team for this event. It is an opportunity to exercise different types of photography: sports, journalistic, portrait, event, etc. Working individually and collectively, our team captured what it is like to be at National Convention. We showcased many perspectives, zooming in on personal details like joyful reunions and zooming out to show the breadth with a shot of the crowd in a session. I balanced camera work with other team lead responsibilities including: editing and uploading slideshows for every morning and evening, providing daily social media images, scheduling photographers based on their skill and experience, and coaching photographers in their duties.
