If you’re a parent in Bergen County or Rockland County looking for a meaningful teen summer program, Focus Frame might be exactly what your teen needs. This one-week photography workshop isn’t your typical summer camp. It’s a hands-on, creative lab where teens learn real DSLR photography skills, explore visual storytelling, and build the confidence to express themselves through images.

Created by Bergen County-based photographer and former art educator Julia Chang-Lomonico, this program is designed for high schoolers who may have outgrown traditional camps but still crave something engaging and creative to do this summer. Focus Frame blends structure with freedom—offering just enough guidance for skill-building while allowing students to pursue their own point of view.

With only 10 spots available in this founding round, it’s an opportunity to not only join, but help shape, a truly original teen summer program built specifically for the needs of creative teens in our area.
