Established in 2016, Shutterslug is the official student-run photography organization at UCSC. Through meetings, events, photo-critiques, and collaboration, we welcome students of all skill levels and hope to foster a tight-knit community committed to advancing their craft. Members are encouraged to strengthen their leadership skills, develop their creativity, and gain exposure by having their work displayed on our media platforms and potentially published in our annual photography journal.
This year, we are producing our sixth volume of Lightleak, our annual photography journal open to students of all experience levels. Lightleak is fully produced by students and celebrates the beautiful photographic work of UCSC students. Lightleak is distributed every year across campus as well as published on our website. With Lightleak growing in popularity every year, we are trying our best to print as many copies as possible! Shutterslug would love any and all support in funding our annual production of Lightleak! Please feel free to visit our website to view our previous five volumes of Lightleak by going to: shutterslugphotography.org/archive !
