WHY ARE YOU TAKING THIS PHOTOGRAPHY CLASS?

WHY AM I IN PHOTOGRAPHY?

   I've wanted to take this photography class since my Freshman year. I was going to take it but I realize I wasn't a fan of film photography. So I dismissed it and took graphic design. It came my senior year and I realized I needed another fine art credit. I also realized Ms. Underwood took over the photography department and it was going fully digital. I thought I'd step in and try it out.

  I've always enjoyed digital film and digital photography so I thought this would be for me. I've already had history in Photoshop and After Effects. As well as working with a DSLR. Art in digital form has always been a big passion for me, I don't have a steady hand as I'm very energetic and can't sit still well so I figured digital is the way to go because I can fix small things in post.

 When taking photos, I've always felt like I'm missing technique. I know about the rule of thirds and what not but there are things unbeknownst to me that I could take into effect and make my photo have a truly good composition and set up.

  1. It is evident by your work so far, that you are going to be an asset to this class. Your digital experience is a big help to me. It's the hardest thing to teach because it is always more difficult to explain than to actually do it.

    I am looking forward to seeing your Paul Strand - Straight Photography- assignment.
