New York City

2008-01-16T12:24:00.001-05:00

On December 27th, my sisters and I went to NYC to stay with my sister, Carrie. We had a great time, and were able to go to Times Square for New Years Eve...which I must say, was a BIG mistake..There's nothing enjoyable about it...8.5 hours of standing in the same place shoulder to shoulder. However, the last minute when the ball dropped was fun...but other than that, not so much. So here are some photos from our trip!

Christmas Gift

2008-01-10T11:03:00.001-05:00

Over the break, I had a fun job that someone wanted me to shoot for them. This large family wanted to suprise the parents with a portrait of them for Christmas. It was a great shoot, and I love some of the images that were produced.

18 Month Portraits

2008-01-10T10:55:00.000-05:00

I'm learning so much about digital imaging on my internship..its been fun. Then as I was inspired I went home and found this website on enhancing my photos...and I absolutely love it!
Here is an example of 2 before and afters of what this method does.

Hillbilly Hoedown!

So I had to re-shoot this assignment. The first time, you could see a little bit of the floor in the background and so Chuck asked me to re-shoot. So I did...4 hours later, this is was i got...along with 9 other frames. The part that took the longest was setting up the very extensive setup.

An in-class assignment. This was a group project with two other classmates and we were to advertise handbags.

This was from the spring semester portfolio...one of my favorite images. The model is Hannah Joyner.

My cousin, Jonathan Dockery, does not smoke....but he was a sport and smoke almost a whole pack in a matter of two

My faithful friend, Hannah willingly modeled for me for an assignment, but after we were finished shooting for the other assignment, we had a little fun and I shot these. It was 530 in the afternoon and the sun was on the opposite side of the building. However, I brought a 285 Vivitar on a light stand and i had a small soft box.
