Self Promo # 2

For my Self Promo # 2, I decided to photograph a group of bracelets that I have from Forever 21. I photographed this in studio with Alien Bee's Lights. I wanted to give the photograph the feeling that it was a gift,  so I used a BIRCHBOX© gift box and ribbon. 

Self Promo #1

I was given an assignment to produce a number of "Self Promos" over the next six weeks. The Self Promos can be anything of my choice, I just have to get it approved by my professor. For my first self promo, I chose to photograph O-L!VE Oil. I produced this image in studio using Alien Bee flashes and fill cards.

Client Assignment #1

Our first Client Assignment was to photograph any kind of vegetable. I went to the local vegetable store and purchased a Spaghetti Squash, a Yellow Pepper and a small onion. I cut into the spaghetti squash and found very quickly that it was a very unattractive vegetable on the inside, so I opted to grill the onion and pepper instead. I love the grill marks that were left on the skin of the vegetables, I feel like they give the photograph an extra something special.

Visual Resume

We had an assignment to create a Visual Resume, we had to do a self portrait, include three portfolio quality photographs, and write a small bio.

Summer Harvest

Summer is my favorite season, especially because my grandparents always plant the most spectacular garden. Their backyard becomes filled with beautiful plants that produce the freshest vegetables possible. I did a mini-shoot with my beautiful cousin, Meagan O'Connor, for a soundslide project, and this was one of the extra images that I had.

Grandfather

I got the chance to be a paparazzi for my Grandfather for a day. He is an avid fisherman.  I wanted a picture that portrayed him, and I think this did very well.

Glass

For one of our assignments, we were told to photograph glass. I loved the slinderness of the light in this photograph.
