It would not have been possible without the incredible generosity of Adorama who provided brand new cameras, lenses, SD cards and even an iPad for the class. \u00a0For the sake of weight, size and automatic functions, I chose to use\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/searchsite\/default.aspx?searchinfo=sony+a7s\" target=\"_blank\">Sony A7s<\/a> cameras with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/searchsite\/default.aspx?searchinfo=50mm+sony+zeiss\" target=\"_blank\">50mm Sony Zeiss<\/a> lenses.\u00a0 It isn\u2019t often that I have to think about whether the camera can be used as a weapon or as a way to store contraband but in this instance I had to think that way and knowingly leave the camera straps at home.<\/p>\n<p>I am a BIG fan of the Sony A7 cameras.\u00a0 In fact, I think it may be the first official woman\u2019s camera. I know there are men reading this shaking their heads right now, but I am 5ft tall with hands the size of a child, and this camera actually fits me. \u00a0I\u2019ve been using cameras designed for much larger people all my life and it\u2019s refreshing to have a camera in my hand that feels like it was designed for me.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26056\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic2.jpg\" alt=\"pic2\" width=\"576\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic2.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic2-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>This is a photo of me.

After a brief intro, I passed out the cameras and their assignment. \u201cTake portraits of one another the way me and every other photojournalist has to take portraits in prison, no faces, no markings, nothing recognizable.\u201d Ready.

I suggested they shoot from above, from below.\u00a0 Within seconds a student was on a table, another lay on the floor, one held up a paper flower in front of her face.\u00a0 Another student directed a Correction Officer to photograph her, and I listened as she told him how to hold the camera what she wanted in the frame. \u00a0For one hour they were given freedom of expression, control over a medium and even with all the limitations of what they could and could not photograph, they directed their shots.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26059\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic5.jpg\" alt=\"pic5\" width=\"576\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic5.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic5-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic5-120x90.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26060\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic6.jpg\" alt=\"pic6\" width=\"576\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic6.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic6-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26061\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic7.jpg\" alt=\"pic7\" width=\"576\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic7.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic7-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26062\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic8.jpg\" alt=\"pic8\" width=\"576\" height=\"862\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic8.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/pic8-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Way too quickly it became time for \u201cthe count\u201d.\u00a0 They returned the cameras and on their way out the door, I reminded them of their assignment, \u201cStudy the light.

I was disappointed and so were the students, but this experience showed me what was possible, it showed me that teaching inmates to visually tell their stories is a great idea. \u00a0So, stay tuned.\u00a0 I\u2019ve devised a \u201cnew and improved\u201d workshop\/re-entry program that will be soon be getting underway in a federal prison.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in finding out more
