by the way SLADENATOR!!!!!!! i did write my project proposal but i wrote it on culture and i'm hoping that i can still do that project sometime, because it really interests me. BUT ANYWAYS...my new project is on water!

this is my final project. I was going to do my project on culture but it didn't end up working out so i shot water. I shot at my house, the salt palace, temple square, and lots of other places down town. I was really stressed out while i was shooting because i was worried about time, but i feel like this assignment has some of my best images all term. I have definitely learned that not getting behind is a HUGE deal, its hard to shoot good images when you're just stressed out about getting the assignment done. I was stressed when i started shooting, but after a little while i just got into it and was able to get some good images. While i was shooting i paid a lot of attention to light. I also learned the simple images are better. My images that were really busy, were not nearly as good as the simple ones.

Final

soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo i don't have spanish today which means i feel like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and this is a portrait!!!

SOOOOOOO i'm not a big fan of this image. I'm going to reshoot it...but yess i thought the light was interesting, and it looked abstract. but i don't think i executed it very well!!!!!!!!!

so another thought about my project I think it would be interesting to shoot all my models next to each other with masks on.

welllll... me and stephi were just talking and i had a brilliant idea. Well i don't know if it will appear brilliant to you but i'm really excited about it. I love learning about different cultures and so I think i'm going to shoot that. I'm going to shoot stephi and whitney because they are greak and show the diversity of cultures. I'm going to also shoot Lisa since she is armanian and try to capture her cultural backround through the images. And then Johanna since she is guatamalan. And these russian people that stephi is going to introduce me to so it will be interesting figuring out how to shoot subjects that i don't really know. And then possibly a ginger like anne marie or someone is just culturally just pure american like Laura lee. I want to show the cutural diversity in utah, and i'm really excited about this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THis is how i feel about school!!!!! I'm soo frustrated with it! I'm behind in everything since i've missed so much. I'm behind in EVERYTHING! and i have basically straight b's which is not good. And i only have 3 weeks to bring them up!! ahhhhhh

I LOVE VOLLEYBALL!!! I was considering doing my project on volleyball but lighting is always bad in the gym and i didn't think it would be very interesting. But i just thought these were awesome images of the stanford volleyball team!

I really like these images. Paul Strand really captures their emotion.

I thought that the light and compostion in these images was really interesting. I've been looking at Paul Strand's work and in the majority of his images light and compostion sticks out to me. And in his portraits I feel like I really know how the person feels. He really captures their emotion.

I've been looking at documentary's and most of the ones that leave an impression on me are kind of depressing like this image.

My project!!

I don't know what to do for my final project!!!! ahhh help. I'm thinking rather than shooting specific objects I would rather tell a story through my images. The documentary's we watched in class really inspired me, although I wouldn't be able to do a story that intense I want to figure out something interesting in the world that affects many people and shoot it! I just have to figure out what that will be!!!!!!!!

HALLOWEEN HALLOWEEEN!!!!!
