Smile Pretty for 2005 Camera Corps!

Camera Corps in diligent pursuit of artistic oral history! For the second consecutive year, 32 4-H students from across the state will be out and about the Iowa State Fair, August 11-21, snapping candid photos of fair-goers.

Led by Iowa professional photographer Tim Florer, the 32 high school-aged students will be on the fairgrounds August 16-18 to photograph the everyday activity of the people, animals, events and food that make up the Iowa State Fair.
