Image Inspiration

Below are some images that I have saved to work on over the next few weeks. let's take a look at them...

This first tide pool image intrigued me because of the clams, however the trees in the background seem to distract from that so I may isolate the bottom half with another image.

This image shows a beautiful colored tide pool that i adore. However, i do think the snowy mountains distract from that.

This is my favorite image i have found and will most defiantly be the first image i work from.

I saved this image because the lights and shadows where very intriguing.

I like this forestry themed photo the best. i am a sucker for a waterfall:)

Photography Exposure

Epcot center (Asia)- kSc What does a photograph mean to you? For me, it is a way to capture exactly what I see in that moment. This could be a memory, a reminder or a time. It could also be a way to capture what you feel in a particular moment. The beauty of it all is that photographs themselves are so simple to look at but can usually entice all different types of emotions. And a person does not need to be a proficient to create these images. One only needs a camera and the means to learn what makes an enticing photo. What A marvelous hobby indeed. Madison Downtown- kSc Within my short life I have found photography to be one of my many artistic escapes. With a camera in my hand, people usually tend to shy away from my lens and as a result, they leave me alone. This is quite the relief for a social outcast like myself. However, I do often enjoy a subject to capture, and when no one else is willing I can find enjoyment in photographing my dearest friend, Madison Alexander. ...

Assignment 2: DOF & Motion

For this assignment, since we were locked in due to the snow, me and my roommate Madison decided to use her as my model in a series of photographs. Here is the result. Depth of Field: With these photos, I experimented with depth of field. In the first Photo my goal was to show a shallow depth of field in showing the detail of the trees and Madison blurry in the background. I edited this photo by adding yellow to the highlights, green to the shadows, and upping the saturation of the red in her jacket. The second photo I tried keeping the depth more mid ranged to deep. Keeping the edge of the building in focus and the sky and trees in blur. I edited this photo by adding brown to the shadows and blue in the highlights. Then I added saturation in red and yellow to bring out the orange in the building. In this photo however, I wanted the blur to be gradual. starting with a shallow field, my goal was to slowly see the blur increase as it went further into the distance. You can se...

Assignment 3: Portrait Series

Series Title: I am a Woman When coming up with a series, I toyed with several concepts that where great. I ended up choosing this one based simply on the fact that I had more than enough models. In the end this has become a very loved series that I am very proud of, so let me introduce you. This series is titled "I am a Woman". The theme and concept of these photographs was to show women in such a way that you perceive them as innocent. Then each of these women where told to bring their self defense weapon and hold it for the photograph. Initially, I wanted to display these weapons as the center of the photographs, but I figured out very soon that the girls are the real stars here. Either way, these photos where meant to show the view of a predator, as most of them view women as weak, innocent, or Etc. I chose to take these photos to display the need for weapons amongst us women as we are viewed in this way, and are easily targeted. I conceptualized this ...
