Collage

This week in class, we had to make our own interpretation of a collage. It could feature a person, a place, or a simple thing in nature but we had to use a new type of system to achieve our goal: Photoshop. While it may seem easy at first sight, it is not like people describe and definitely posed a challenge to me. Although, after I got used to it, I realized how much more it offered then systems like Lightroom. I really enjoyed this assignment and I felt I could be really creative with it. My photo features Yasmeena Sharif and I hope you like it!

Dancers in Motion

Image
Last week, my photography class and I embarked on a day trip to the NYC High Line, along with filmmakers, and dancers. Our task was to photograph those dancers in motion using the resources around us. The trip really helped me to understand photography in an uncontrolled setting, and helped me test my knowledge in the real world. My favorite spot was this small corner section of the High Line, where I took my favorite pics. The following photos I took demonstrate the numerous photography skills we learned throughout our classes and practice shoots. Hope you like them :)

Weston: Food

Image
Edward Weston was a photographer who dedicated his career to photographing food. But this was not just any food, he took single fruits and vegetables and made them the subject of his photos. This week we were tasked with the same goal, and I decided to use a pineapple, a pepper, and a tomato. Initially I expected this to be easy but it really is not that easy to make a tomato look "different." However, I developed a lot of skills on this project and I hope you enjoy the pictures.
