High Museum

I recently went to the High Museum with Lottie. I was looking forward to seeing the China's Terracotta Army, which was really awesome. But I also saw a lot of cool photography there with the traveling installations they have. It was pretty sweet!

Denis Reggie

Today I saw Denis Reggie come through our Mac lab and I guess I was just star struck, but I didn't know what to say when Mrs. Harkins introduced Him to us. I smiled and waved. That's all I could do. Mrs. Harkins was giving him a tour of GTC.

Finished Fantasy Shoot

Finally after reshoot after reshoot, I got a good image. This assignment taught me how to pay attention to all the little details, like ISO, your flash, and whether your camera is taking RAW or JPEG, because in the end it can make a good image great. Not that this is great, but I like it!

W. Eugene Smith

While working on my photo essay on gravediggers I googled photo essay and W. Eugene Smith's name popped up. He's work is incredible, his printing is expressive and dramatic. I love pictures that evoke emotions, and his truly do.

Shooting Weddings

Today in Advanced Portraiture we talked about wedding photography, and the do's and don'ts of how to shoot one. I've shot one wedding as kind of an assistant and it's no joke it's hard work. I'm interested in shooting more to get the experience. While looking at wedding photographers I found this cool site, Wedding Photojournalist Association, where you can join and upload your wedding photos in contests and win up to $1000. And if your interested on how to shoot a wedding go to want to shoot weddings.

A Rare Alignment

Tonight is the night to shoot, cause not only is the Moon out, but Jupiter and Venus too. And you probably won't see them this close until 2052. To check more out on this click here.
