Sessions of 2025 Summer Conference: Amber Wallace

Wallace, Amber
Digital Photography Teacher
Millennium High School
I am currently a Digital Photography teacher who has been a working photographer for the last 20 years. I have shot just about everything from portraits, weddings, commercial photography, school events and sports action photography. I mainly shoot natural light portraits but work with studio lighting as well. For 22 years, I have been teaching art and photography to students and adults. I love to design in all 2D medias, including digital, also having taught yearbook for a number of years. Throughout the years, my goal has been to develop my Photography courses to ensure students are exposed to ALL types of Photography and really focus on the use of light, color and composition as my interest is drawing people in with visually interesting images.
