Photography

Artist Statement

My name is Abby Vogel, and I'm a freshman at Blue Valley West. Last year when I was looking for fun classes to take, I noticed photography as one of the options, and I decided to try it out. I've always liked taking photos on a digital camera, but I didn't have any experience with film cameras like the ones we use in class. I love taking photos outside and of nature, and some of those photos are here in my portfolio. My two main favorite processes was when we did burning and also the toned process, because I liked how with the burned prints we had the control to choose which parts of the photo were burned to create a really cool effect, and I like the the toned process as well, because it created a unique kind of filter over the print. My favorite roll I took was my nature roll, because I think is displays the most creativity and variety, and also was one of my best quality rolls overall.
