In this series I attempted to convey some emotion or even moral from this three picture sequence. I tried my best to create small stories, that sometimes are predictable, and sometimes are ironic. I also tried to use different lighting, coloring to convey different themes for each sequence.

In this series I attempted to portray some type of meaning or emotion through capturing toy subjects. I used images from books and computers as backgrounds for the toy characters. While taking these pictures I found that I made little stories in my head and already knew what I wanted to do with the characters after I took a picture. Although not all the pictures relate together, when they are side by side they form overarching themes such as power, forbidden love, and friendship.

Avedon Portraits






In this week's collection we tried to follow Avedon's rules of no distractions, plane white background, only particular subjects, and black and white. I found that this was much harder than it seems to find honest and pure photos of my classmates, when we all tend to automatically pose when a camera is pointed at us. It took long conversations and pondering questions in order to get these honest expressions from this beautiful couple.
