Bokeh



Bokeh is a Japanese term for the aesthetic quality of the out of focus areas in an image. I used the flowers/grass as my Bokeh.

We Were Framed!




Yeah, I know... Cheesy title. What's life if you can't keep it fun, right?

The top was for our framing assignment. This was the first one that I turned in, but because of its lack of a person, and the same problem with many others, we were able to reshoot to get a better grade.

The bottom is the final image that I ended up turning in. I think it works a lot better than Taz, even though he's adorable.

Haw River


For our blog assignment this week we got to choose what we wanted to shoot. I went over to the Haw River and decided to put these together.

Available Light

For my basic product lighting class, we had to shoot an object using only available light. I chose this body wash bottle from Caress. Don't worry, the Shea Butter and the brown sugar tie in. That's the "flavor" of the body wash.

Painting with Light


Our weekly assignment in Small Format this past week was "painting with light." The above is basically me jumping around like crazy with a flashlight, and it's the one that I turned in. Definitely one of the funnest assignment that we've had so far.


That is a long sparkler that was bent and attached to an electric drill. It took a little bit of practice to be able to hold it still, but I think it looks pretty cool.

Childhood Angst

This was our parks and recreations assignment. I went to one of the parks in Asheboro, and found this little girl swinging. She was getting pretty tired, and I think she was a little upset about her grandmother giving me permission to photograph her. She was adorable tho.

Now I Know my ABCs Part II

After the first ABC assignment our instructor kicked it up a notch. We had to find objects that looked like each letter of the alphabet. It was a little crazy when I first started looking for the letters. After a little while tho, it's hard to look at an ordinary object and not form a letter out of it. My dad tried to convince me to do the Greek Alphabet. Not yet.

On the Road Again




Taking pictures of roads isn't exactly all that exciting, but we found a way to make it fun.
