Inspiring young minds through the art of photography!
At Photo Explorers® we believe every child sees the world in their own unique way, and we are here to help them capture it! With our carefully designed photography curriculum, children learn skills step by step while having loads of fun.
After School Clubs
A weekly burst of creativity right at school!
Guided by our curriculum, children get hands-on with cameras, explore fun projects, and discover new ways to see the world! All while building confidence, creativity and teamwork.
Our camera’s do not have games on them, so your children can really focus on the art of photography with no distractions!
Photo Camps!
Action-packed days of photo fun!
Children dive deeper into photography through our exciting curriculum — from darkroom magic and making their own pinhole cameras, to running a mini portrait studio and heading outdoors to capture textures and patterns they’ve never noticed before! And the best part? Everything they create, they take home. 📸

Seriously! But don’t take our word for it, here are some things people have to say about us.
I can’t recommend the photography camp run by Harriet enough. The girls had the best time and their photographs from the day are so impressive.

Harriet is amazing with kids! She taught them photography in a way that was creative, fun, and educational. Our son came home every day talking about the darkroom magic and the cool techniques he’d learned. We’re so grateful for the experience!
