This is the photo essay project. The goal is to tell a story using only photos. For this project, I took photos of my friend at school and edited them in Photoshop.

This photo essay is about studying and how much work high school students have to do. It can be really stressful, and sometimes students need to take a break when they’re overwhelmed.
