Distinguished photographer Dorothea Lange once said that, “The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.”

Pictures can often tell stories that words cannot. Photographers use their skills and artistic eye to focus on details that help enhance the little aspects of life. The KC R. Sandidge Photography Scholarship will support one high school senior who strives to make photography a part of their future.
