Sand painting

The Art of Photography Today - A Jurried Competition

One of my photos was selected to be in this show. I'm really excited about it and just got the announcement emailed to me the other afternoon. Thought I'd blog it out of pure excitement!

Advanced Principles


We've been working with film in Advanced Principles so I haven't had the chance to upload much to the blog, but I accidentally scanned this image before I went to the darkroom to make the print so I figured I'd better blog it.

Lighting for form


Lighting for human form in portraiture class. The first time I've ever taken a stranger's photo. It was a little nerve racking, but I'm happy with the results!

High Efficiency Portraiture!

A high efficiency assignment. I took 30 pictures in twenty mins. or so and was happy with the results.

Portraiture










Open assignment; shoot whatever we want as long as it's a portrait. So I shot the magic of light.

still on the bus



















Still working on the bus series, just haven't shown a lot of it. This quarter is providing me with LOTS of bus rides and therefore, LOTS of work.

While I was out the other day...




Just some silly snapshots that I felt like posting 'cause they make me happy when I look at 'em.

portraiture

Portraits with two people in the picture was the assignment. Katherine and Henry are FUN to have in front of the camera!

Digital Publishing

This class feels a bit like I've been plucked out of photography and into design. It's ok though, fun stuff to learn. This is a little website mock-up we have to do for our first assignment. I think I can actually see my website looking something like this when I have one. Maybe sans the use of the first quarter image though, ha!

Architecture

So far it's been better than I thought. My instructor does a nice job of making it about more than just bricks, which I like. First assignment was to shoot one building (same perspective) under two different light situations. This one's alright, the other was abismal in comparison.

why would you even look at this one when you could the one above?


Portraiture

First assignment in portraiture. Harder than I thought it would be--using window light form the following light patterns on model's face: Butterfly, loop, rembrant, and split.
