Photography

Photography is a medium of visual expression encompassing various styles, techniques, and applications. From commercial to artistic, photography offers students a chance to learn the skills necessary to create compelling visual content that can be used for a variety of purposes. As an academic field of study, photography is not just about learning how to take pictures but rather should be seen as an interdisciplinary field that covers a vast range of topics, including composition, editing, history, and even ethics.

Our art program offers art history and studio art for transfer (AA-T) degrees, and associate's degrees and certificates in the area of emphasis in fine and applied arts.

Norco College student Jenny Pham was selected as the 2024 Student of Distinction in the discipline of Art and Studio Art.
