Rule of Thirds

For our digital class, we had an in-class assignment to shoot three photos using the rule of thirds, and the photos had to tell a story.  My story was (hopefully) pretty obvious -- Snow White.  The hand and legs that appear in the photos belonged to friend and fellow student Natalie.

Out takes

Every photographer has out takes from shoots that they like but aren't portfolio material. Here are a few of mine!

This is my friend and fellow classmate Natalie. We were in downtown Greensboro one night, shooting long exposures off the top of a parking deck. I got this shot when she was shooting her friend Josh. The only light was a street lamp on top of the parking deck.

This is another friend and fellow classmate Anna Tucker! She sat for me when I was shooting portfolio and this is one of the shots I didn't submit.

Macro shot of a bee butt as he was hurrying around and drinking from honeysuckles.

Macro shots of Walker (top) and Brandon's (bottom) eyeballs with my new LED ringlight.

2010 Fall Semester Portfolio

These five photos were the ones I submitted to my design class for portfolio. All of them were shot with my medium format Zenza Bronica SQ-A on 120 format Kodak TMAX 100 ISO black & white film.
