Final for History of Photography 100

The final project in History of Photography was to allow others to see her personality shine through a portrait.

-Bailey!
She is beautiful, fun, unique and confident being her own person! She is always playing with her hands, always cute sideways glances and her own person.

 

Its been awhile.....

Oh my with the quarter coming to a end I have had some real time to sit down and edit photos. I am very excited to have two weeks to focus on me and refocusing on school! It will be good to just let loose and take some photos I love and snowboard!!

Sunday I had the honour of hanging out with Miss Carissa and her Princess Harliquin!!!

See you in quarter 3!!

Digital Imaging Assignment 2

Digital Imaging - expanding my knowledge of PHOTOSHOP and its secrets. The first two images I was playing around with HDR photography and the last one is a Panarama! All taken today in Salmon Arm! Its a great course and after a week away from school I am excited to get back on track!

History of Photography 100 - Surrealism

Krista is a unreal model - so beautiful - with a great look! Was amazing to play around with the lighting and effects it has on a persons look! 

The Sails

To take a iconic image and shoot it as you would see it!! I have a 100 different photos from this shoot that I like and different angles to see it from a different eye. But had to choose one. I love the blue in this photo - the sky - contrast - blue vs white.

LFS 100 Samples

I can not even explain how much I am loving Lighting for Stills 100. I feel like I am learning so much information on how to create a better photo in camera and less post production work! Its all about those four factors; angle, intensity, colour, quality!!

Today the beautiful ladies of the class brought in there grad dresses and we had tons of fun with it!

History of Photography Assignment 2

Last week we learnt about futurism and capturing the concept of movement. The ability to use post production or in camera ability to capture movement. Its alot of fun to shoot, and gives you the freedom to play with options! I enjoyed myself in studio!

History of Photography - Assignment 1 - Pictorialism

Who would have thought - I am loving History of Photography 100!!! Victor has a great teaching style, a lecture about the era of photo history we are covering and then a assignment of 5-10 photos representing that type of photography! Its great - gets us out shooting and eventually will allow us to understand where our personal style of photography came from and what influences us as a photographer!

Pictorialism -  very soft, resembling a painting, soft colors! Great portraiture photography - soft, lacking smiles, focusing on the subject. Stagltz was a great photographer who loved to capture the beauty of the human form - nudes!

Here are the photos I used for my assignment!

Fall and camo go hand in hand...

Its so great to work with a family that incorporated a part of who they are into the shoot and willing to make it a more unique experience.

Thanks for the great evening Krystle, Chris and the boys!

Low Key

Once I began to understand what was meant by Low and High Key I now think I could have a lot of fun with this - especially with studio lighting being played with!

A Sunday Bridal Show

Today was amazing! I attended my first "Bridal Show" with Vanessa (who's wedding I am in next September in Mexico) and Jackie! It is astounding the different types of businesses that are involved in the wedding planning process.

A great thing for me - being a photographer, was seeing two other wedding photographer booths and what they had to offer. I was really intrigued and inspired by the one company. I introduced myself and told her I was attending CATO and mentioned my project I have coming up for PDP200 and asked her if she would be willing to get together and talk (interview) about the business, tips and pointers she may have to offer. She was very inspiring, let me in on a few different secrets and supports up and coming photographers. She has a unique style and it was great to talk to someone who started small and it very successful with her business.

Bring on week three!!! I am very excited for History of Photography and Adobe Photoshop for Photographers tomorrow! Its going to be great to learn the history of what I would love to do for the rest of my life and then to educate myself on enhancing already great photos to be that much better.

A Colour Change.

This photo has inspired me to change the colours of the BLUSHD PHOTOGRAPHY blog. I believe it represents romance, beauty, and is bright and inspiring at the same time!
