Gif


For this photoshoot I decided to take pictures of my mom doing yoga. Yoga has been a big part of my life since I was younger since my mom is a yoga teacher. When my mom told me that she was going to start teaching at Shine yoga studio in downtown Noblesville, I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to take some pictures. I tried to keep my mom off center in the photos to make the composition more interesting. I found it hard to keep my camera steady and hold the button down for so long. I also found it hard for the pictures to all stay in the same lighting, which is why I put it in black and white. Overall I am very happy with how my gif turned out.

Art in the Park




For this photoshoot we were to take pictures of nature in our town. Initially I was very frustrated because we had a short time limit and being that it was February in Indiana, everything was dead and brown. I decided it would be a good idea to go to Morse Park and Potters Bridge to try to photograph water and plant life around the river. Like I had expected, I took a lot of pictures of bare trees and small patches of grass. The image shown above was pure luck that I was able to get that close to the ducks in the water at just the right time. Although this is the only image that I would even consider to be good from this photoshoot, I am very proud of how it turned out. The two ducks show a repeating pattern and rule of thirds making it interesting to look at. After taking this image, I realized that nature could be more than just dirt, green plants, and flowers. It is everything that makes up our environment.
