Avant Garde

So from last quarter we had to do a "Fashion" inspired shoot. I'm not too fond of fashion, but I am very fond of portraits so I figured i'd combine the two and do an "Avant Garde" inspired shoot. I created these head pieces from fake flowers, leaves, and twigs I got from the dollar store. It wasn't too hard, but through doing this, I realized that I have an interest in crafting (among the millions of other things i'm interested in :p).
The model is a school-mate of mine, Mónica Lee Treviño. She was a great help and I was happy to work with her.
Anywhoo, I hope you enjoy.



I had a lot of fun with this shoot and the editing. I'm so mad at myself though, these are the only shots I got from the shoot because I accidentally deleted the rest -____- I NEVER make that mistake...until now obviously. I'll have to be more careful.

Exploration

So, when I first started art school, I swore up and down I would never enter the world of Form/Nude photography. It just seemed....too private for me. Well, that changed when I was introduced to the subject in my Advanced Lighting class. I enjoy Form/Nude photography now (more form than nude), and although I do still view it as private, I think it can be tastefully done.

These photos were actually for a "wet glass" assignment. Form/Nude work was just the product of the shot. This is when I first became interested in it. 

 
And so, I decided to go full on and do a form/nude shoot for my final and this is a taste of what I came out with. I'm excited to explore more. 
 

Let me know what you think!

Oh, Hello =)

So, a couple of quarters ago my Location class had a photoshoot at  farm. It was BEAUTIFUL and sooooo much land! A former school-mate, Sadie, was kind enough to model for me and I think I got some pretty good shots. I hope you enjoy!




I'll be updating A LOT more regularly now. =)

Long time no blog!!

I'll be starting to update this by the end of the week. This will now be a way to get my photography (along with other art) out there and to keep myself motivated. Stay tuned, you won't be disappointed.
