My Self Portraits :)

Skyscrapers, Abondoned Places, and Signs?

This is my lovely architecture project
I have some pictures from the summer when I was in Chicago. :]

Myyyy awesome portraits ;]

Okay... So I ran into some troubles trying to take my portraits, but in the end, I'm awesome as always :]

So the first two portraits are of Alexis and Olivia. 

Both Alexis and Olivia were being photographed by Cortez. He's super tall. I'm super short. It took me a while to actually get a nice picture.. ish.

The next photograph is of me. It's puuury lame, but I took the concept of having a line going diagonally on the photo with trees somewhere in the picture. Haha

Not much to say about this picture... 

These last few pictures are of a GIGANTIC marble I found in my house. These were quite fun to shoot.

If something is far away, then it's upside down in the marble, but if it's just pressed up against it, the marble is a magnifying glass. o:

The portraits of the ring is almost like a self portrait, since it's my class ring, teehee. 

So yeahhh. Those are my photos for our very first assignment.

Unfortunately my internet died yesterday due to my daddy hitting a wire somewhere outside and cutting out our telephone and internet. >< Oh daddy... lol.

.Bloop. Ideas for a New Year!

:D It's awesome to be able to blog in class again. Teehee. 

Here are some ideas for my portraits I'll be shooting soon. 

This picture was taken by Lars Kehrel. It's showing a shallow depth of field. I find it quite creative, taking a picture of a couple taking a picture.

This picture was taken by Sandrine Escamilla. I just find this picture ADORABLE!!! Using a marble is amazing. 

This picture was taken by MGM Photography for Carli's Senior Portraits. It's cliche having someone on a railroad, but the direction of the railroad and where she is positioned in the photo is quite charming. 

All photos were found of FLICKR

So yepp. I'm going to try my best to apply these ideas into my portraits. :]

Silhouettes

Oooh, pretty :]

It took a while for me to get ideas of what silhouette pictures I could take. The sun was near sunset and the sky was absolutely beautiful. I got my little brother to jump really high from a table that I had set on the front lawn, and I was laying on the grass and took many pictures of him jumping. It wasn't until the near end that I got the picture of him in the air.
The flower silhouette was a happy accident. I just took a picture of it for fun, but when I uploaded it onto the computer, it looked usable and presentable.
I had put textures on both pictures. On the flower was bokeh, the other was Scratch the Surface #3. I got these textures from Shadow House Creations. I think that it's very nice that Jerry Jones, not the football person, would put these textures up for others to use on their creative pictures.

I think that I did pretty well on these pictures. I only wish that for my second silhouette picture that the houses and trees weren't there.

Thanks for viewing my blog and please leave a comment ^-^
