St-st-st-studio! / I lied.

Another sweet photography project I did for my class was working in the school's photo studio. It was actually kind of fun, and I produced some sweet pictures.



This one is pretty self-explanatory. I loved the colours.



Here's another still-life. I had these metallic cups in my cupboard and used them just because they are colourful and this class has a focus on colour. On both of these, I got positive comments from my professor on my great use of colour and how I made interesting photographs out of very simple subjects.




The third is a portrait of my sis. She hates this picture, but I like it better than the other ones I took of her. She tried serious looks and class-picture smiles, but all of them looked fake. We were joking around when she started laughing on the set, and I kept snapping the camera. I think it works, especially if you know her, because she is pretty goofy and laughs a lot. Those who know her also know that she probably would not be wearing those necklaces. I made her wear them for the portrait.

Off topic, I was re-reading some of my old posts on this wonderful blog of mine, and I wrote one year ago that I didn't like writing as much as I thought I did at the time. I take that back. I started writing a little again for my campus newspaper this semester, in addition to the copy editing I have been doing since the prior, and I love it. I want to be a journalist again, at least that's what I say today.

Cheers!

I think all your photos are great. I always wish I would have took a photography class. Maybe I will at some point.
