The Bride

Needing to relieve some stress and to shoot something for fun, Dusty was kind enough to help me brush up on my wedding photo skills by running down the mechanic's hallway. Thanks Dusty, you're the best!

Breakfast Redone

So yea, here is the redo for our breakfast illustration. In grading he didn't like my pancakes of course and said my bad grade came down to my cooking abilities...so here ya go, no cooking involved.

Self Promo #4 More Toys

This is another self promotional shot I've done with childhood toys. I liked the reflections and decided to have only the reflected pick up sticks to be in color.

Self Promo #3 Cheerwine

Here is my self promotional # 3 assignment. I wanted to do some more reflections. I did touch up in Photoshop but the reflections I show are real. I actually found a glass bottle at a gas station(rare these days) and wanted to photograph it. I decided to tip the bottle because it looks neat and bottles sitting up straight are boring.

Leaf Aptus 17
iso 50
1/60 @ f/5.6

Here is the setup for the most part, I like to keep it simple.

Had to take a break from the serious work, I guess thats what happens when you look at Chip Simon's work in class.

Matches

I was messing around with macro last weekend. The matches were on the counter after using the grill and I liked the way the sun played across them through the window.
Nikon D50

iso 800
20mm lens with ext. tube

Client #3

Our class had to take a photo for a book cover to illustrate intolerance in America. I chose multiple colors of thread to represent different people and cultures. The thread coming off the spools shows that we are all connected even though we may be different. Or if you are Jonathan it could be fuses to dynamite.








The setup involved a softbox and fill card. The light setup was broncolor. The camera was a Mamiya 645AF with a Leaf Aptus 17 digital back. 1/50s @ f/11 with a 120mm lens.

2nd Self Promo Photo - "Fun with a slinky"

This is the second self promo shot I did. I found an old slinky at home; its the 1st shot of a series I might do. It was shot with a Nikon D50 1/125 @ f/11 @ 200 iso at 120mm.










This is the setup for the slinky shot.

1ST Self Promo Photo

This is the first self promotion assignment I did for Commercial. It is an old rusted metal morter and pestle that was on the front porch. It was photographed with the Sinar digital back on a Mamiya RZ67.
