A Brief Photo Guide

Unsure about what you're supposed to do as a photo volunteer? Don't know what a "pitch" is? Worry not! Check out this quick guide that covers the basics of the Gateway's photo section. If you read the photo guide last year, this one has some new info in light of COVID-19.

Join the Gateway Slack and Facebook group!

These will allow me to message you in a more informal and instant setting so quick messages can be sent quickly and easily! It also makes it easier to message a bunch of you at the same time.
