PH 450: Travel Photography 🏙️ This required class has two options: one is a class trip domestic or abroad (this Spring students are going to Iceland!) or being a tourist in your own city of Nashville. With so much tourism and things to see right in our own backyard, Nashville is a great destination to capture the essence of traveling. 

Take a peek at the #behindthescenes of class downtown this week! #travelphotography #downtownnashville #broadwaynashville
