Week 13: Advent


Assignment: Ordinary to Extraordinary


My aim in editing this photo was to tone down the original oranges of the photo and the over-exposure on our pasty Irish complexions. I did some minor cropping and vignetting as well as adjusting levels and exposure.

Week 12

Rocking the bangs for the first time since 1st grade. I feel so young.

Assignment : One Shot


For my "one shot" project I wanted to capture students leaving mass on Sunday night. I liked the feel of the soft lighting around St. Vinny's, and have always thought it complemented that after-mass peacefulness that one feels when leaving. Had I had more than one shot to make this photo, I would have found a slightly better angle to give the church itself more weight in the photo. I also do not like the harsh glow that the lamp to the left of the shot created on that side of the frame.

Week 8: Pryz


This was taken in class on Monday night. It was one of the few shots I got during the light assignment. I was really struggling with getting a clear image with longer exposures. Things were just not cooperating. I did quite like this shot, though.
