P1: Project # 7: Self Portrait-Me, Myself, and I

What I did to take this photo was stack things on top of a stole and then I pressed the button on my camera and I had ten seconds to get into place. So I ran to the stairs and I wanted my stair bars to look like jail bars, and this is the result.
For this picture, I pretty much did the same thing as I had done for the picture above. Except, I thought it would look cool if I had my hand reach out towards the camera.

I took this picture in my bathroom. I had the camera aiming towards the mirror. For this picture, I had my make up done in such a way to reflect the movie Mulan. With make up on one side of my face, and none on the other side of my face. 

This picture was not at all supposed to turn out this way. I was being a goof ball and played Pink's song "Raise Your Glass." I pressed the button on my camera to take a picture and I had ten seconds to pose. And this was the result.

P1: Project # 6: Rule of Thirds/Symmetrical-Chair

I  placed a chair in my hallway and I took a picture because I believed that the chair followed the symmetry rule. If you look closely, you can see the shadow of the chair.

P1: Project # 6:Rule of Thirds/Symmetrical-Christine

 For this picture, we were walking through her neighborhood and we walked past one of her neighbor's houses and it had perfect lighting. I told her to get behind the bush, and this is the result.
 When walking around her neighborhood, we found a pile of leafs and I told her to throw them up in the air, and this is the result.
I thought it would be interesting to take a picture of her sitting on the curb, and this the result.

P1: Project # 5: Lighting-Book

In this picture, I had a book opened and I put ribbon in between the two pages. I had a desk light facing the left side of the book page, causing the shadow to be on the right side of the book.

P1: Project #5:Lighting-House of Cards

For this picture, I made a house of cards. I had the desk light on the top right side. I had cards placed in front of the house of cards because I thought it would make the picture look more interesting.

P1: Project #5:Lighting-Lucy

Ithis picture, I had my dog sit and I had her look away. I placed a desk light towards the left side of her face, that's why she has that nice black shadow on the right side of her face.
In this picture, I had my dog lay down and I had a desk light pointed towards the left side of her face, causing the black shadow on her right side of her face.

P1: Project # 4: Portraits-Alyssa (a.k.a my mom)

For this picture, I had my mom and my dog, Lucy, stare at a treat. The reason why was because that was the only way I could take a picture of my dog staying still.

P1: Project # 4: Portraits- Gabi

In this picture, I had her look through a glass cup. I had her do that because I thought that the reflection of the glass would look really cool. (Picture above)
In this picture, I had her stand up against a wall and tie a bow around her finger. I had her press her finger to her lips showing to keep a secret. (Picture above)


In this picture, I had her put ribbon all around her face. I told her to try to make it look like she was trying to pull the ribbon off her face. (Picture to the left)

P1: Project # 4: Portraits-Shayna

In this picture, I had my cousin show how flexible she was by doing this pose.
In this picture, I had my cousin stand up against a wall and I had her look in another direction.

P1: Project # 3: One Thing Project- Pikachu Photo 2

What I learned from this project was that the lighting of the picture does matter because the lighting can make the picture look cool and show the shadows of the object.

P1: Project # 3: One Thing Project- Pikachu Photo 1

What I learned from this project was that it takes time and good positioning to take  good a photo.

P1: Project #2:Photograms

For this picture, I used a see through paper weight and gold, shinny stars.
What I learned from this project was that when you use a shinny object, it makes the picture look better. The reason why is because the shinny side reflects the light, making it bright.

P1: Project # 1: Pin Hole 3



The top picture is the negative and the bottom picture is the positive.
What I learned was that you can't have the pin hole facing too much light because if you do, it will turn the photo paper black.

P1: Project # 1: Pin Hole 2


The top picture is the negative and the bottom picture is the positive.
What I learned from taking the pin hole camera outside was that the pin hole can't be open to long because of how bright the light was outside.

P1: Project # 1: Pin Hole 1


The top picture is the negative and the bottom picture is the positive.
What I learned from this project was that when you use a pin hole camera, the pin hole will show the  movement of the object.
