Cupcake Wine©

What goes together better than cupcakes & wine? I can't think of anything! I wanted to do a wine ad for my Self Promo # 5, but wanted to steer away from the typical cheese and crackers, boring bottle wine ad. I found this delicious bottle of Cupcake Chardonnay and thought : PERFECT! I got the prettiest cupcake that I could find, some beautiful grapes, and BAM! Made this awesome triptych.

Client #4: a dozen eggs

For my Client #4 Assignement, my Professor Chuck told us to photograph a dozen eggs. We could style the eggs however we liked, the only restraits were that the final image had to be a 12x12 crop, and must include all 12 eggs. I immediatly thought of breakfast and ran with it. I remembered seeing these adorable egg crates from Anthropologie©, so I ran up to Greensboro and purchased some. I figured that brown eggs would look more appropriate than plain white eggs and give it a more 'country' feel. I included the Better Homes and Gardens© Cookbook to give it a definate kitchen setting. I wanted to include a cracked egg with the egg yolk and a wisk to make it seem like baking or breakfast is about to happen. All together, I'm very happy with my image.

Silk PureAlmond© Milk

So Monday, our professor James gave us an assignment to go out and find a beverage tear sheet (an ad in a magazine, of a beverage) and reproduce it. I was paired up with my absolute favorite person in my class, Alicia Irivn , and we created this awesome Ad for Silk PureAlmond© Milk.

Here comes the bride {Sneak Peek}

On Saturday, I had the opportunity to photograph two of my very dear friends wedding. Will Mitro and Brittney Cope celebrated their 8 year anniversary on Friday, and got married Saturday. This was by far the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen (and I've seen a LOT!)

I'm very fortunate to have had Brittney come into my life, she has been an amazing friend, and at times an awesome mentor.

Cans

So I get to my favorite teachers class at 8 am this morning (entirely too early if you ask me) & he immediately gives us an assignment and rushes us out the door. Nothing like being woken up by an ex-autioneer style voice telling us to go out and photograph a soda can. No guidelines, nothing. We were able to use anything we wanted as a prop, etc.
Best Part: The photo's metadata had to read that it was taken no later than 9:25 am.
AWESOME!!

So I'm paired up with Sarah Johnson and Lewis Perkins, and these are a few of the images we came up with:

Apartment Living

This is my first posting for my new blog "Lindsay Allen Photography". I decided to post this photo because it shows a little piece of my life. I recently moved into West Pointe Apartments with two of my classmates from Randolph Community College. We've completely transformed our apartment into a vintage-eclectic living space. This photograph was shot through an antique mirror, which gave it a hazy look.
