RCC Commercial Photography Class of 2013

So, as many did not know, last week was National Biscuit and Gravy Week according to The Cooking Club of America, So Shana Jarrett & I decided to ring in this holiday by celebrating with our entire class. We brought it upon ourselves to organize a huge breakfast for our class, which included home made Gravy from our famous Neeses Sausage, biscuits, cinnamon buns, donuts, fruit, croissants, waffles, orange juice, and a few other items. Our awesome professor, Chuck, then decided to break out some Polaroid film that expired back in 2004 for our class to play with for the day. Each of us took head shots and then some goofy pictures and hung them on our bulletin board to "claim our stake", this is a little sample of what our awesome day consisted of!

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:

Rule of Thirds

My first assignment for my Intro Into Digital class was due today. We were given 2.5 hours to photograph any subject we would like and create a layout. The only restrictions that we had were that the photos had to be in a "rule of thirds" format, and that we could have either two horizontal and one vertical, or two vertical and one horizontal. I immediately started thinking of ideas, and since photography runs my life, what better idea that to do equipment? The first photograph is my personal Mamiya C33 twin lens medium format camera. The second photograph is a close up of my ©Epiphanie camera bag and the adorable keychain that came with it. The third photo is my fathers old light meter from his photography business and a Canon AE1 that a dear friend had given me.
