    Great group of people. I just thought Austin could be a little more well versed in different types of cameras. I'll definitely book another outing when available.

    INSTRUCTORS
    Austin Jensen
    Austin Jensen lives and works in El Paso, Texas with his family. Although he was born in Colorado and has lived in many different places, the 106th west meridian has always been a constant in his life. Since he was young, Austin has enjoyed many mediums in the visual arts, but photography has also been a constant. Austin is an emerging fine art photographer who is on track to graduate in the spring of 2023 with a Masters of Fine Art Photography from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco California. In his photography, Austin explores familial relationships, identity, place, body, and mind. His unique approach combines intuition with form and light to explore beyond the referent. His occupation with light and lines comes from his years of experience in drawing and other mediums. He cherishes photography because of its ability to question the soul. His photographs are as much art as they are philosophical ruminations
