Free Project

For our last project, all of my brainstorm ideas completely changed last minute this weekend. I decided to capture photos of the four classical elements of the environment (Earth, Air, Fire, and Water).
My intentions were originally set out to do that balloon idea (which actually I used one shot in the end). After the balloon photo shoot, the pictures didn't really turn out like I wanted them to. Also, to make matters worse, my photoshop trial ran out, and I could not edit them the way I wanted to in this amount of time.
Here are a couple of the failed photos:




I was really inspired by Rosie Hardy & Alex Stoddard's work. 

A group of friends and I went camping this weekend, and I decided to bring my camera along. I ended up really liking how the photos all turned out, and it brought a whole new idea to my head. The four classical elements of the environment.

last project

For this last project, I have been brainstorming ideas since day 1. A couple weeks ago, I thought of doing a photo shoot revolved around the theme "It's my party and I'll cry if I want to". Yesterday I got a couple of my friends to help me out and we put up balloons all over my dorm room wall. I still have to edit the pictures, but I'm not sure that they turned out like I wanted them to.

But yesterday/today a group of us went camping, and I brought along my camera. I took a lot of pictures that came out really well, and I thought of a completely new theme that revolves around "fire and water" complete opposites.
I've been really inspired by Rosie Hardy's photography.

Right now, I am downloading the trial run of Adobe Light Room from Adobe's website & I am going to try to edit the pictures to see if they come out like the vision in my head.
