In September 2025, the Ignite team had the pleasure of visiting GEMS Royal Dubai for a four-hour “Basics of Photography” workshop. The session was specially designed for Year 2 students, introducing them to the exciting world of photography through fun, hands-on learning activities.

Over the course of the workshop, we guided more than 50 enthusiastic young learners as they explored how to see the world through a camera lens. From understanding light and composition to experimenting with creative angles, the students showed incredible curiosity, imagination, and energy throughout the day.

Their enthusiasm was truly inspiring! It was amazing to see how quickly they grasped the basic concepts and began applying them in their own unique ways. Each student brought a fresh perspective, reminding us that creativity has no age limit.

The entire Ignite team was impressed by the warm welcome we received from both the students and the staff at GEMS Royal Dubai. We are truly grateful for the opportunity to share our passion for photography with such an inspiring group of young learners.

We look forward to returning in the near future for more creative sessions and to continue nurturing the artistic talents of these budding photographers!
