Shooting Beauty covers fashion photographer Courtney Bent’s ten-year quest to invent cameras accessible to people with disabilities and the incredible photography project that emerged as a result. A meditation on friendship, beauty, love, and loss, this insightful documentary challenges preconceived notions about people living with disabilities. In association with Inglis Foundation, this event will also feature a screening of the inspiring short film, “Mental Shape: The Art of Robinson Fredenthal,” produced and filmed by residents of Inglis House (http://www.inglis.org/).
