Shared camera bodies
Modern cameras students can check out when they do not have suitable personal gear.
Donate & Sponsor
Support student gear access and community shoots.
The club is building a shared equipment library so students can participate without purchasing every piece of gear themselves. Support also helps the club provide photography services to community organizations.
Why support us
Equipment access creates opportunity.
Roughly 30 active members photograph campus life and community projects. Shared cameras, lenses, and lighting make those assignments possible for students who do not own professional gear.
Current resources
What members already use.
Personal cameras and lenses contributed or used by members, a tripod, a backdrop, and a reflective umbrella. Lightroom is expected to be provided by the school; confirmation is pending. These are current resources, not claims of club-owned inventory unless ownership is confirmed.
