bo·​keh /ˈbō-kā/ 

During this Media Photo-Workshop, our students had a great time learning how to play with cameras and light. This workshop had as its main goal to show students how to create photos of lights molded into shapes. All by using a camera, craft supplies, light, and their imagination.
