Important information regarding senior pictures:
Students in the spring photography class at PSHS were inspired by photographer Mary Jo Hoffman for their final projects. Using found pieces from nature, students took to the challenge of creating a composition mimicking Hoffman’s minimalistic, modern artistic style. Photos were then placed in a virtual online gallery.
“This might be the coolest thing I have ever seen,” Hoffman wrote in an email to the students’ teacher. Not only did Hoffman take time out of her day to visit the gallery, but she also gave a shoutout on her Instagram account.
PSHS Spring Photography students: AMAZING JOB!! Hoffman was “flattered to have been your inspiration!”
If you would like to see what our amazing students have been up to, visit the virtual gallery here:
