Studio | Homemade Backdrop

I used light room to edit these and made the back-round darker in the last one & the first one. Then I just cropped them a little so she was more off to the side.  I really like these four because they are kind of crooked.

Perspective & Scale

 Fore this photograph I set it up to I hung lights in my room on a blank wall. Then I moved the candle holder closer to me so that I could get the bokeh effect coming out of the photo. I edited this one in lightroom and added the vignette. I also made it black & white while darkening the blacks.

 I did this one on the beach and made the dino sit a little further away from me and then set him in the sand. I edited this one in lightroom, I edited this one by darkening the blacks & then blurring out the edges.

 I took this one in my room and I set it up the same as the candle photo. I edited this one in lightroom. I wanted to keep this one color because I liked the colors from the box. I made the purples & pinks a little brighter. I also cropped it a little more to make it a closer shot.

 I set this one up the same. I also edited this one in lightroom. I also kept it in color because of the color on the mug.I edited this one and made the mug have more light & darkened its shadow.

Shadow Play

 For this one I made it sepia & cropped it a little.

 For this one I made it black & white and made the clarity higher.

For this one I cropped it so that it would be more off to the side.

Color Shoot

color:

I didn't edit this photograph. I choose to photograph this flower because it had a center that popped out. It made the main focus go to it. Complementary

I cropped this one so it was a closer shot. I also moved it off to the right. I choose this flower because it was very bright & had a great contrast in front of the green. Dominate 

neutral:

I set up a little "studio" in my room & opened up my window for some natural lighting. I wanted to get the bubbles & color contrast of the coffee & cream. I cropped it so it was off to the right a little more.

I found a little tree in front of my house & shot upward. I made myself & the camera tilt & look up ward toward the sky.

Chapstick Grid

The lighting was fluorescent, I took these in the classroom. The green, light blue, & yellow are best for this subject. The pink was too similar to the pink color on the subject.

Historical houses

I went to a small town called Volcano. I made these black & white then made the house one a little lighter & the other one a little darker.

Orange | Color Grid

I found these pumpkins & flowers at Safeway.

First Day Shoot

Our assignment was to take photographs of this paper bag. We could do anything with it. I chose to take photographs of it with the sunflower in it to show summer transitioning into fall & school starting.

How I Roll

 For this photo I mad the pink a little darker so, it was more of a magenta color and made the brightness brighter on the yellow flower.

 In this photo, at the beginning, the marbles were yellow and not clear and shiny. So, i made the brightness brighter and then I changed the purple and made it lighter.

 For this one I made the green less bright because it was taking away from the marbles that looked faded. Then, the purple turned darker as well.

I made the white more white and changed the brightness to +30 so then the pinks and colored hearts were more bright.

These photos represent how I roll because, it is my style. My style is bright and colorful! It shows through onto these photos by, the color and contrast. I think the patters on the fabrics add a pop of change to the photo and then I added the marbles onto the fabric for a shine effect.
