Final Project

For our final in digital class we took a photo of a person on a white background and then put them in two different settings. My friend Sam was nice enough to model.

City fashion.

Model Shots
For our last day in lighting class our teacher brought in a makeup artist and a model and we were told to set up lights and shoot. We directed the model how we wanted her to look and said what hair and makeup we wanted for the shots. This one was a lighting setup done by another student using Speedotron strobes. There was on softbox hitting the side of her face and a kicker light bounced off foam core.
This was the lighting set up I did. One broncolor strobe high above her head right in front of her with a grid. I wanted something with contrast. I was going for a old hollywood type lighting style with a twist. Both were shot on a Canon 5D.Labels: model, professional, woman

Herb Ritts Inspired

One of our assignments was to take a photographer who is like a mentor to us and copy their style. I chose Herb Ritts, I absolutely love his work. My friend Ron modeled for this shot I was lucky to get her to do it considering she hates getting her picture taken. This was taken on a Canon 5D, ISO 500, exposure was 1/8 @ f/32.

Intolerance
This was shot for Photographic Illustration. The assignment was to photograph a book cover for "Us and Them: A History of Intolerance in America." It was taken on a 5D, ISO 100, 1/25 at f/32. I really like this image and am proud of how it turned out.Labels: black, intolerance, scilence, woman
