This week is full of different approaches to my project. I learned a lot this past week shooting more than ever with my film camera. February 1, 2010 – This is Tavis Johnson. Tavis is in my wedding photography class and is pretty awesome at what he does. Check out his blog at www.tavisjohnson.com! So this shot is taken with Kodak BW400CN film = translation = a 4o0 ISO black and white [...]

This was a fun week. If you didn’t notice my photo-a-day project is resulting in 365 pictures instead of actually taking a picture a day (which I do anyway, I’m just not always in a position to shoot for this project every day). So, six out of seven of the pictures for this week are from the same day. What we did was put together a sign that says “We take your [...]

Okay. This week I decided it was going to be a shoot strangers week. This whole photo-a-day project for me is about people, getting more comfortable photographing them, and being able to work with them. I have had such a hard time doing this so far, so I was determined to break my ice. So, with exception for my last photograph… these were all pictures that were difficult or uncomfortable for me [...]

Joseph is the professional voice of VCBO Architecture and head receptionist. I wouldn’t be surprised if Joseph has been nominated for employee of the month consecutively since thhe program was initiated. He always greets visitors with a smile, with [...]

Tonight I had the pleasure of spending some time with an incredibly intelligent six year old girl named Grace and the rest of her family. You can oftentimes find Grace expanding her mind with books, songs, and even comics. Grace found a love to learn, imagine, and embrace education which has resulted in a passion for reading. She excels through her school projects and takes them very seriously. She is a great [...]

Since I’ve decided to shoot people for my project, I have been thinking of all these great people who I am excited to photograph! People who are close to me, people I want to know better, and people I haven’t yet met but plan to introduce myself. You might be on my list! Tonight we spent the night with my parents and brothers and sisters so I planned to photograph my Dad [...]

Today is the first day of 2010, and the first day for me to fulfill part of my new project of a photo-a-day. Back in 2009 I requested friends and family to provide suggestions for possible themes, and I’m glad I did as I’m thrilled with the suggestions. I originally thought of doing something I’m very comfortable with such as nature, but most suggestions were to photograph people in different ways. Suggestions [...]
