ARTIST STATEMENT
Although many of these photos have come from past projects, I did have to go out and take more to fill the requirement. I changed a few to black & white to show great depth and detail and I love enhancing the color on these images to make them pop out to the viewer. These photographs all directly relate to my life because they are filed with friends and environment that I experience and get to be a part of everyday. I used all composition techniques and some images contain more than one on their own. There are ways that these images could be stronger, but with the skills I have at this moment, i think they are very good.
After reviewing my quarter one projects I think I mostly need to focus on putting more time into the editing of the images. Taking the photograph is one thing, but editing to make it even better post shoot is vital to producing a masterpiece.
