Still Life: Single Object


Here is a picture of a toy ship taken in our class studio at Mercy. I liked the angle this was taken at because it was kind of a perspective shot. The lighting was fun to work with because putting the lights in different places gave the shot a different mood.
f6.3, 1/80, ISO 1600.

Landscape Photograph in Color


This is a picture of the Kohl Mansion. This picture was comprised of about 25 pictures. I like this picture because it reminds me of a John Mayer album cover. This picture represents lots of color, proportion and balance.

Principle of Design


This picture represents in Principles of Design picture. I like this picture because the proportion of my models feet to the rest of his body is being played around with. My model is also emphasized because of the lines created by his legs leading to his face and the saturated color of the sky.

Micro Lens/Zoom: Texture Emphasized


This is a picture of the brick wall outside of the Mercy Kohl Mansion. This picture shows texture, movement, and pattern.
f5.3, 1/60, ISO 400.

Still Life: Grouped Objects


Here is a picture of a bunch of plates and bowls stacked up in my kitchen. I choose this as my still life grouped objects picture because of the repetition in plates and lines along the bottom of the picture. There are a lot of unique and straight lines in the picture along with emphasis. The lines help draw the viewer in while the picture focuses the eye on the plates at the bottom because of the depth of field.
f3.5, 1/60, ISO 1600.

Element of Art


This is a picture of a light fixture in my bathroom. I choose this as my element of art picture because there was a unique flowing line through the picture, space, shape, and texture. The light on the right is also emphasized because of the depth of field and the light falling on the rule of thirds line.
f5.8, 1/20, ISO 1600.

Narrative Photo

Pictured is my narrative/autobiographical photo. I like this photo because of the depth of field putting emphasis on the Nikon lens cap. I thought this was a good representation of my life because I always have a plan, always on my phone, and always taking pictures. There is also a lot of value represented in this picture.
