What is the Young Lensmasters Club?

The Young Lensmasters Club is a fun, supportive photography membership designed to teach our youth that expressing yourself through photography builds confidence and helps see the world in a different way.

Each month, members get new video lessons, creative challenges, and personalized feedback to help them grow their skills and explore the world through a lens—all at their own pace.

Whether they’re just starting out or already snapping shots, this program gives them the tools, guidance, and community to grow into confident, creative photographers.

Meet Your Instructor

Hi, I’m Philip Carnevale—and I’m the photographer behind the Young Lensmasters Club.

I’ve been a full-time professional photographer for over 15 years, and I’ve had the incredible honor of seeing my work published in National Geographic and Arizona Highways. Throughout my career, I’ve earned more than 2,500 different awards across local, national, and international photography competitions. But the most meaningful moments haven’t just come from behind the lens—they’ve come from sharing what I love with others, especially kids.

My journey has taken me from rodeo arenas to hospital rooms. However, that was just the beginning. Throughout photographing hundreds of weddings, working with clients like PBR, PRCA, Joan Rivers, Phoenix Children’s Hospital, along with dozens of local and national brands, there is always one point of focus. STORY TELLING FROM THE HEART.

I created the Young Lensmasters Club because I believe every child sees the world in a unique and beautiful way. Give them the ability to use a camera confidently and with a little encouragement, they’ll amaze you with what they capture! My goal is to help your child build creative confidence, develop lifelong skills, and learn how to truly see the world around them.

“I believe photography gives kids a sense of purpose and presence. It’s not about perfection—it’s about noticing the magic in the everyday.”

If your child loves taking pictures, being creative, or just wants to try something new, I’d love to be their guide on this journey.
