Photo Team

Sasha uses a lot of contrast in her photos. Most of her photos are black and white. Her photos are very elegant and she likes to use the rule of thirds. I had her look directly at the camera because her models did that and it made the photos look very real.

Nora almost never puts the subject in the center. She puts a lot of different colors in her photos. Her photos usually are darker and have a blueish tint to them. I put her in front of leaves because she uses nature in almost all of her photos. I used Cross Process and Intrepid to make it more Nora's style.

Stefan usually does black and white photos with a lot of contrast. In his portraits, he photographs his models from the shoulders up and in the center of the picture. He uses a white background.

Grace's photos have a yellowish tint. She photographs with a white background. Her subjects rarely look at the camera. She doesn't use a lot of color in her photos so nothing distracts from the model.

I decided to include two pictures of Katie because I think they each represent different aspects of her style as well as personality. In this photo, I wanted to represent the more serious side of Katie's photographs. She takes a lot of black and white, high contrast photos that are beautiful, artsy and emotional.

This photo represents the sillier, stranger side of Katie. The unicorn half. This style is full of bright colors, peculiar poses and overall weirdness.

This is a picture of MEEEE!!!!!!! I chose to focus on the style I used for my animal pictures. Zooming in on the face, high contrast, dark colors, and I tried to look sad and lonely but I ended up just looking kinda weird.  Oh well, close enough. Who new it would be so hard to imitate my own style? 

Anyways, I hope you like my photos. This is my last post ever so farewell, lovely people in my photography class. Have a nice summer!

Best of Houses

Tadaaa!!!










Apparently, I have to write a blurb about what makes these pictures stand out. Basically, I picked these pictures for my Best of post because they fit well together as a series. Also, the tilted shots made the houses look interesting and the colors and lighting looked nice. That's it.

Houses 3

This time, when I went out to take pictures, it was really sunny. The sun made the houses too bright and my camera kept taking pictures that had barely any color. I found that if the sun is partly covered by the house, the brightness is diluted and it creates this interesting effect with pink spots. I also took some more regular pictures of different aspects of houses, such as the gate, or the stairs. Enjoy.

I went to the Oakland Zoo and took some pictures of animals. I mostly took elephants.
