Fantasy Narratives

This week we took photos of action figures, and were asked to make them look realistic. I chose to make my photos come alive by blurring some of the figures and adjusting the lighting of the shot. I also use depth to add a sense of motion to the photo.

Portraits

In this assignment we were asked to take portraits of one person in front of a white background. As I photographed my subject I asked her different questions and tried to capture a true expression in either her eyes, or her face as a whole. My idea was to make the photos look as natural and real as possible.

Depth: Repetition

On this assignment we were asked to continue with depth, but add repetition to all of our photos. So I chose to walk around and find some common repetitions and make them noticeable. My approach was to look at everything from a different view point and see what I could find. I think that I was able to come up with a pretty good set. Hope you enjoy!

Depth: Background & Foreground

For this assignment we were asked to photograph different subjects a distance away from one another to create the illusion of depth. I chose to focus more on using the background to create that illusion, instead of both the background and foreground. I used exposure to help the background compliment each subject. I think that this is a pretty good set, so enjoy!

Leading Lines


The assignment was to take pictures of objects that make you wonder what's on the other side. My approach was to take pictures close up and far away, so that you can see each image in a different way. I also thought that by playing with the highlights and shadows of the picture, it would help make the images stronger. So here is my set for Leading Lines. Enjoy!

Rule of Thirds

For this assignment, we were asked to take pictures of both scenery and people in different positions, with different divisions. My approach to this was to take something small and make it stand out by using what was around it.
