Chase Jarvis is my hero.

I think I have posted something about iPhone pictures in that past but this article about Chase Jarvis and the way he photographs using his iPhone blew me away! I love having an iPhone and I love using it for simple photos here and there to share with friends but after reading this and seeing the work he did, I am challenged to use my camera phone more and seeing what I can achieve. I encourage those of you with iPhones to do the same!

Multimedia II Final Project

Here is a little humorous video about my time in school and what a photography student does, in short. Enjoy!

25 of the Best Photographer Portfolio Websites

Here is a cool website of the Top 25 Photography Portfolio Websites. There are some awesome links in here.

Coming to an End!

Thank goodness my 5th quarter here in the Gwinnett Technical College Photography program is coming to an end tomorrow! It was a great and challenging quarter, I'll miss it just a little. It's been a stressful past few weeks but everything has come together nicely. Today's critique of my Glamour Portrait and Environmental Portrait went well. Now I just need to prepare myself for next quarter.

Multimedia Class Project

Here is a little project that my multimedia class put together in about an hour on Wednesday. We had a lot of fun with it in preparation for our final!

Bryan Peterson

This guy seems to be able to make anything look awesome. I wish everyone in photography has such a creative eye as his. It's pretty awesome!

Glamour Photography

This article pretty much sums up the idea behind glamour photography: What is it, what it's not, and how to achieve it without making it look "pornographic." It's interesting and definitely a good article to learn from.

Photoshop mess ups.

I found a website that makes fun of Photoshop disasters. Some the images are pretty funny and you can see just how careless people can get with photoshop. I guess now I know why Mr. Jones (a multimedia teacher at Gwinnett Technical College) is on us all the time about paying attention to detail!

Demi Moore body swap? Yes or no?

Apparently when this picture was taken you could see a bit too much of the model. They took it a little too far with Photoshop and now it just looks awkward.

Being that we're getting deeper into wedding photography, I thought this was appropriate:

It's a little long but it's a great video so if you can pay attention for about 6 minutes, you should watch the whole thing.
You can also go to the website and view more.

Holiday Portraits have come to an end!

It's a little bitter sweet that holiday portraits at Gwinnett Tech are over. We all worked really hard and came out on the top in the end. Although there were some difficult times in the process of set building, the upper quarter pulled it together and made things awesome! Well done everyone, you should all be proud.





John and Ms. Finch weren't there today so we had to improvise with the pictures. A photographer is all about problem solving! Haha






There's more to Photography than just...photography.

I came across this interesting website that lists all kinds of photography that one can go into. I thought it was pretty neat and would probably be helpful for those of you that do not know what they want to do after you finish the Photography Program here at Gwinnett Technical College.
