Self Portrait Depicting Beauty

2009-11-10T23:54:00.009-07:00

For my photo class last year I had an assignment to take photos with ourselves in them. I wanted to use myself to portray my thoughts on beauty. I love these photos because of their multiple meanings behind them. Also, I love the shock factor that people seem to get when seeing that I am actually inside of a dumpster. :)

Textures and Detail

2009-11-10T23:45:00.004-07:00

I spent a beautiful fall day last year at Bear Lake looking for ways to capture texture. This was my favorite photo that came out of the shoot. I love the detail and textures I captured in the faded wood and the rust on the clothes pins. Also the blurred out leaves in the background give subtle and soft color to the photo.

Study Abroad (Spain/Portugal)

2008-09-13T12:17:00.005-07:00

I was recently going through old files on my computer and came across my photos from a study abroad program I did a few years ago in highschool. Spain is such a beautiful place and I didn't realize how good some of the photos turned out because it was small point and shoot, but they actually look pretty good.

This was a photo I took near the beach in Portugal.

This was a photo in Salamanca, Spain where I was living. This was the largest Cathedral in the city and really stood out over all the small buildings.

Photograms

2008-09-04T14:42:00.005-07:00

I am currently enrolled in a black and white film photography class. I will be learning how to use a camera manually better, lighting/exposure, and how to develop film. It will be a good experience having my photos critqued and get some feedback from my teacher. One of our first assignments we did was making photograms. Photograms is basically when you expose shadows on a light sensitive surface. Here are a few of them I did for my class...

Priceless Moments through Luck

2008-08-18T10:46:00.000-07:00

In my photography class the other day we learned that part of being a photographer is being spontaneous and having luck. This was a photo I took while on our family vacation (Bearlake) of my sweet dog. I feel like this is one of those photos that just jumped out in front of me while I wasn't even expecting it. My dog just happned to fall asleep on a pile of books next to my father's glasses. I put them on her face and snapped the photo quickly.

A good friend of mine and I decided to head up into the Logan Canyon to try to see what we could find. These are some of the best photos I got from the small trip.
