Portfolio

Baseball ,I'm not quite sure I like this photo. You know when you look at something and you are just drawn to it and don't know why. This explains this photo. I like the clouds and the emptiness of the photo. It give me a chance to focus on the details and composition of the entire photo.
I really like this photo because of all the details. I never really thought I would like HDRs but I was quite impressed with how it turned out .
I decided to tryout the bottle picture for fun. It took me a few tries .....A LOT of tries actually but I'm happy with the outcome so far. I'm going to make it an effort to improve this photo throughout the week because I want a challenge.
This is my all time favorite photo I have ever taken. I love the shadows. I love black and white photos because of the depth also I love the fact that this was a photo I had to become inventive when I used a clamp to hold my camera on chair from my dinning room.
 I used an off camera flash and a 17-50mm and macro lens in order to blur the background when i wanted to. I used the off camera flash to create depth in the photo cause of the white background.
Fall has arrived and I decided this would be the perfect blog for the season. I LOVE macro it is my best friend. I used natural lighting because I wanted the leaves to have a cool look to them showing the colder side of things.
I wanted to show the front of the shoe since in the first photo it was blurry. In both of these photos I experimented with white balance in order to bring out the gold and silver aspects of the shoe.
. I turned on my flash and camera then on my test shot I captured the silver chair,with this type of lighting I decided to experiment with the chair and how it reflected the light so well. I was quite impressed with how the first photo turned out. This also won me an honorable mention.
I when the spotlights in the theater were turned on Heather had on her toe shoes I had her stand on her toes so that I could capture the reflection of the spotlight on the stage.
This is my Creeper shot I know it's not my absolute best but I wanted to show I could use different types of light shots.



I know that I will not be going any father in photography mainly because I other plans for my life. I will however continue taking photos as a hobby. That feeling you get when you print out the image and you hang it up and realize that is all because of you is why I am going to continue. I am glad I stayed in photography not only for the photos but because of the last relationships and bonds with these girls. This really is my second family I don’t think that if it was any other class that we would have bonded so well. Because we all failed and succeed together is what brought us so close. We could share ideas and tips and that is what photography is about improving always and expressing yourself. Though my love for photography will never die, I glad that I can take photos when I want to and of what I want to and its now stress and deadline free. =]

Headshots Headshots Headshots

The cover might possibly kill all of the photographers. I took twenty nine photos of random people today it was quite exciting. I did not take a flash I simply used natural light.

Kickin' It

So Autumn Sehy gave me this photo assignment  the day her section in the paper was due so I took the photo really fast. The first time the lens didn't focus on him so I had to go back and retake the assignment. I feel I did a pretty good job considering the time limit on the assignment.

Education in the Nation

A simple assignment is what I needed. I like this assignment because it made me go back to the basics which is something I needed at the time.  I felt that I did really well by capturing different angle as well as different focal lengths.

Self Portrait

Failure. Why is it that I can set up the photo correctly but I can not pose myself. I like how my light was setup I used three lights and cut out my shadow and hung it from the ceiling. My stage was kinda jack but oh well, I going to try again to get my posing to convey what I want.

Stress Effects All

Today I shot an assignment to show stress over homework. Right now this is the best assignment I could have gotten. When I was posing her for the photo illustration I didn't know what to do but Hannah pointed out that I was doing a stressed pose. I think I did well on this assignment  because she seems really confused and stressed. So yeah, that's my blog for today.
