Lakeshai B- Emily

I took this for the low key assignment of Emily. I colored in the black background and change the lighting i was really happy with the look i got in hear  faces.

Maia S- Hogwarts

i took this on my trip to orlando with the cross country team. i loved the way the sun was hitting the side of 'Hogwarts' and how the moon is just above it. i wish it was a little more in focus but i think that is the best i can get from my camera and how dark it was outside. 

Mariah M- Little Bit and Buddy

This is a picture I took the week my aunt came and stayed with us. These are two of her sweet little puppies. They are the most playful dogs and it was actually quite hard to get a somewhat good picture of them, but I ended up with this one, and Im happy with it! To edit it, all I did was crop it because there was a lot of unnecessary grass in the background and I also messed with the curves a bit to mess with the color of it some. But all in all I am happy with how it came out!

Morgan Ann C- In A Different Light

I took this picture in the stairwell of C hall. I took it during the period with light coming throughout the window. I made it black and white and adjusted the curves. I put a white layer over the picture and made the adjustment to difference. and masked the rest of it so it was just the windows.

Haley Y- Leaf

This picture I adjusted the brightness and contrast. So that the leaf stands out against the plane background. I also selected the back ground and made it black and white. I took tho picture in my front yard, of a leaf that had just fallen. 

Katie W- Light Orbital

I took this picture for the demo project. I did this picture by setting my camera to a shutter speed to 30 seconds. I tied a rope to a whisk, and I put steel wool inside the whisk and lighted it on fire. I got a friend to swing the rope and spine around so the end of the whisk hits the concrete to produce sparks. I didn't do much editing to this picture other than lightening the background to show more detail. Im very happy with the way this picture turned out.

Stephanie P- Katie

I took this picture for the hands and feet assignment. I really like how her face is blurry and her fingers are in focus. I edit the curve of this picture to make the colors brighter. I really like this picture.

Tripp S- At Bluff Park

This was taken at the Bluff Park Art Show with my Canon A1. This exposure was made on Velvia 100 by Fuji, a modern day slide slide film. Though the developing process was rather tedious (I had to wait over 2 weeks for my slides to come back from a lab in Florida) it was totally worth it. Never have I seen a film record color so accurately or with such saturation. Obviously it was scanned and minor edits were done in Lightroom.

Jenna O - White pumpkins

I took this picture this past weekend. We had white pumpkins for a wedding party. I love the lighting and the angle. I boosted the exposure and changed the levels and curves and added a layer mask to bring out texture.

Shelby C- Pepsi

I took this photo a Tanneill State Park a few weeks after school started. I edited this picture by brightening the curves. And I added highlights and bumped up the saturation. I love this photo because I love advertising, and I love the bright colors.

Victoria D- Grace

I took this picture at the beach of a feather.  I set the camera to as high key as you possibly can go to take this picture.  I edited it by sharpening the picture, i cloned stamped a lot of the pieces of sand to make the back ground not seem so white.  I love this picture because of how detailed the feather looks.  I also like how it look a like a painting gives people a different perspective of photograpghy. 

Ashley V-Broken

I named this picture Broken. I like it just cause the coloring of the bark i added in and it just makes the picture different. I like it but i could definitely make changes like the lighting and where the bark stands but it was good like that so i left it alone.

Emily B- MGMT

This is another one of my composites. I took pictures from the lake: a leaf, the lake. and the trees around the lake. I messed with the levels and boosted the contrast and saturation. I love how crazy it looks!

Samantha D- Remembrance

I took these photos when i visited Washington D.C over the summer. One picture is from Arlington Cemetery and the other is the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall. I created a composite image and adjusted the color and added a grainy effect to part of the wall to make the face of the soldier marching look older.

Tripp S- Flowers

This photo was taken as part of the high and low key assignment but came out as a very nice full tonal range image. The black and white was not so much as artistic choice but a correction I used to compensate for the color fringing caused by the FD mount lens I used. I edited this image obviously by converting to black and white and using the color channels to give the different parts of the flower their own individual shade. Also the contrast was increased and the noise was slightly reduced.

Emily W- Low Key Portrait

I took this picture for the High and Low Key assignment. I desaturated the image and adjusted the levels, brightness, contrast and the shadows/highlights. I am really proud of this low key image. I think it turned out wonderfu

Will C- Hand

I guess I'll name this picture hand, because I'm not creative enough to come up with a name. I took this picture in Tampa, Florida this summer. I picked up this shell and snapped a picture with my hand and it turned out good. I selected my hand to desaturate it, increased saturation on the shell, and painted the hand to try and match the tones. 

Yesenia S - Low Key


This picture was take in the photography studio and used for the High & Low Key assignment. I edited this photo by blurring the image to make her skin look smooth and soft. I also changed Catherine's eye color and adjusting the levels. Overall, I liked how this image turned out.

Catherine S- Toe Shoes


This picture was taken in the digital photography studio. I edited this image by overlaying a desaturated layer and adjusting the opacity. I also played with the curves and levels. It is slightly desaturated and has increased contrast. I like how this image turned out.

Abbey W- Spare Tire


This photo was taken in my drive way of my spare tire. I propped it up against the fence with my car lights facing it so i wouldn't have to use a flash. Its a low key image. I love how the final thing turned out.  I added filters, duplicated the background and changed the blending modes a couple of times. I also bumped up the saturation. I wish it had more rainbow colors than some of the oranges and browns but overall i like it.
