Certificate in Fine Art Photography

Photographic Center Northwest
The Certificate in Fine Art Photography is a 53-credit program in fine art photography. Courses are technically and creatively demanding, and the program provides instruction on par with post-baccalaureate programs in photography. During their studies, students develop their own style of photography and grow in ability to understand, appreciate, produce and critique photographic works. Certificate students gain a solid education in the fundamentals of photography through the Photo I-III sequence, Photoshop basics, color and studio lighting basics classes. There are required classes in history, professional practices and project development, and advanced students customize their education, pursuing advanced seminars and topic classes that align with their own style and vision. Students refine their ability to create a body of work in the Junior and Senior Seminars and in the capstone course, Thesis, which is a year-long course. During their Thesis year students meet with faculty advisors and develop a body of work for exhibition. After defending their work before a committee Certificate students participate in the annual thesis exhibition at the PCNW gallery.
