Johnson, the group’s director. “She is also responsible for helping student peer instructors as they guide and instruct beginning photographers,” Johnson added. He added that all KHS Photography staff members are prize-winning photographers who volunteer their time to cover after school events as well as help supervise beginners. [Photo by KHS Photography]
