Janett Perez

Lead
School of Photography

Janett Perez (she/her)  is a Bay Area–based artist and photographer with roots from Southern California. She loves photography because there’s always something new to learn about the craft and really enjoys bending the rules to get experimental with images.

She holds a degree in Photojournalism from San Francisco State and has been taking photos since highschool. Janett’s work is shaped by a documentary lens and deeply inspired by surrealist and psychedelic art, California landscapes, and the women in her life who’ve persevered through adversity.

At this point in her photo journey, she focuses more on learning about darkroom and film processes, as well as giving back to the local photo community through teaching and connecting with others.

Education: Bachelor of Arts, San Francisco State University (San Francisco, California, Journalism (Photography))
