Alum Celia Sanchez featured in Upworthy
From Celia Sachez's series Devoted.
We are happy for alum Celia Sanchez ('16) for this well-deserved write-up in Upworthy. The story features Celia's series that challenges conventional depictions of motherhood.
As a young mom, Celia Sanchez felt like an outsider.
Sanchez, who became a mom 11 years ago at age 23, had many run-ins with fellow parents that she won't soon forget.
"When I would take my children to day care, I felt kind of ... like I didn't look like the other moms," Sanchez said. "They were much older than me. I just felt kind of separated from them. I would get a lot of 'Oh you're so young to be a mom,' 'You don't really look like a mom,' and I always thought that was a silly thing to say: 'Oh you don't look like a mom.'"
Sabrina Che in Pacific Design Center
Alumnus Sabrina Che ('15) will exhibit photographs at the Ralph Pucci Showroom in the Pacific Design Center. Opening reception is Thursday, August 11th from 1pm - 5pm
Congrats, Sabrina!
Alumni Damon Casarez, River Jordan named two of PDN's 30 Emerging Photographers
PDN announced 2016's 30 New and Emerging Photographers to Watch, which included two ArtCenter Photo alumni. Congratulations, River Jordan and Damon Casarez!
We view this yearly issue as a celebration of emerging talent, but it’s also a reflection of the photography industry. These photographers’ stories not only highlight their willingness to learn the business and what it means to be professionals, they also demonstrate the impact experienced photographers—those willing to teach, to encourage and to make connections for others—can have in helping to define what professionalism will mean to new generations of photographers. - Conor Risch, PDN Editor
Profiles on each of the 2016 PDN’s 30 photographers are featured in PDN’s April 2016 issue. See more at: http://www.pdns30.com/gallery/2016
