UP Optics' Grand Narrative

It all started one dark afternoon of the 1st semester of A.Y. 2002-2003 when a group of Film 110 [Basic Photography, B&W] students under Professor Anne Marie de Guzman got attached with black and white photography.
One of her students, Jesus Paolo Tolentino, initiated the founding of an organization that would serve as a venue for photography enthusiasts where they can enhance their skills and at the same time share these talents and interests with fellow photography lovers. Six out of the 15 students pursued the plan. After several informal meetings, the news spread through personal invitation.
And on November 20, 2002, they gathered for the very first general assemble at the second floor of Palma Hall commonly known as AS. And the rest, as they say, is history.
