4x5 Film

NYC Pictures are on there way soon...but in the mean time here is something to check out.

I just got back from NYC and the creative juices and drive to improve as a photographer are running. Just uploaded over 16 GB of photographs onto my computer from my trip to New York City. I loved absolutely every moment of it and feel inspired. I started editing the photos and within seconds it suddenly became 3 am. Time sure does fly when you are in the zone.

I'm not quite ready to reveal the project that I worked on while in New York but trust me it was an adventure. In the mean time, here is a photograph of my Dad that I took over a year ago on 4x5 Kodak TMAX 400. I finally got around to scanning some of my old negatives and found this photograph in the mix.

Off to NYC

Off to NYC for the week. 

I took this photograph on my last trip to the big apple during summer of '09. I love New York.

Downtown P-Town

Masonry Work of Downtown Provo, Utah.

We are surrounded by art everyday, however I think a lot of art goes unnoticed. I have a secret love for architecture and even more specifically historic architecture. I am continually impressed with the talent of past Masons who created gorgeous work without the access to modern technology. Since I don't ever think I can make it in life as a sculptor at least I can photograph other's creations.

Smoke Self Portrait

Another image from my Intro to digital class last fall. I know it's definitely a little amateur in my skills as photoshop but I thought the idea behind it was interesting. Originally this photograph had a blue tint to it but I decided it look better as a B&W image.

Black & White Still Life

This is an assignment from my intro to digital photography class from Fall 2009. We were assigned to create a black and white digital image. I was walking through Bed Bath & Beyond when I saw a display of a billion (well more like 60) salt shakers. I loved the repetition of all the circles and thought it would make and interesting still life. This is what I came up with.

Intro to Black & White Photography Portfolio

I figured that I should of posted these a while ago. These are the photographs that I created in my Intro to Black and White Photography class last winter (2009). It has been about 10 months since this portfolio was created and it is amazing how much I have learned during that time.
