iSO reflection

I enjoyed this photoshoot more than any of past photoshoots I've done before. I was able to incorporate a theme of fall inspired photos. I also loved how I could use dim lighting, such as candle light, into my photos. In my everyday life I light many candles around my room and bathroom because I feel that it creates somewhat of a somber mood and makes the room cozier. Being able to use the candles as my light kind of gave anyone who is looking at my photos a kind of sneak peak into my life. 

I have attached some of my favorite photos to this blog. In the third picture you can see I used the rule of thirds when photographing the glasses against the book. After taking this picture several times, at many different angles, I felt that this photo worked out the best for what I wanted to portray. 

I feel, as an artist, that this is one of my stronger photoshoots. I had no troubles controlling the settings on my camera to achieve these pictures which was a huge plus! Overall I feel that I accomplished what Mrs. Hahn wanted to see from these photos and I will definitely use the rule of iSO in many of my future photoshoots. 

Shutter Speed/ Motion reflection

When I figured out that this photoshoot was going to be assigned over fall break, I knew that I would want to take my pictures on my vacation to Florida. There were several things I didn't expect to find down there that were great to photograph. Such as the migrating monarch butterflies in some of the dune state parks. I tried to use the rules of get close and rule of thirds when taking my my photos. Although I sometimes forget to use them.
One of my favorite places on Earth is Rosemary Beach, Florida. I have always dreamed of someday moving there and settling down in some kind of beach house. I loved that I was able to take pictures of all the amazing things in this place and show other people the town since it is not well known.
I think that I did a good job of having variety in my pictures. If I could change one thing it would be to practice more before I went out to take my photos. Sometimes I would find a good picture opportunity but I wouldn't be ready fast enough to take the picture. Overall I am very proud of these photos and I will for sure use these techniques in my future photoshoots.
