Richard Avedon


For this set of photos, I was tasked with taking photos that followed the style of popular photographer Richard Avedon. These styles include a square photo and the photo being square. However, the main part of his photography is the amount of emotion that is conveyed without using the rest of your face. For example, a smile can convey emotion quite easily but it is harder trying to keep your face blank and still be able to make the emotions clear.

    You did a really great job on this task and I really like the one photo of Declan that doesn't have too many dark colors giving it a lighter and happier feel. I like the addition of the hood to almost give it a more serious and mug shot feel

Slo-Mo

Slo-Mo For this batch of images, I tried to bring out the colors often making the photos seem unnatural and that you can not really tell what the photo is of. I tried to capture the light trails leaving the main point that I originally captured moving the camera from side to side and upside down to make these trails and manipulate them in ways that I liked. I also found that some of the images looked better in black and white. I used a density filter to take these photos during the daytime because I couldn't take them at the shutter speed necessary to make the blur. I hoped that the light trails coming off the subjects in the image reminded you of something electrical and futuristic.

Composition 3

For this series of photos, I used several techniques such as a symmetry symmetry and balance. Symmetry is when the image is perfectly equal in all ways the left exactly matches the right and vice versa. Asymmetry is when the right does not match the left and vice versa. Balance is when there are two objects of close to equal weights on both sides of the frame.  Asymmetry   Symmetry Balance

Portfolio

My Portfolio For my Spring Project, I transitioned from the small figures in a scene to architecture. What I would do is I would walk around and take a picture straight up a building or capture part of the building in the frame. I tried to divide the frame with sharp angles that defined the edges of the building and frame. Or I just shot in a straight line up the building as opposed to straight towards it. Over the past two weeks, I did my best to master this technique and here is my result.
