Theme: Impact

Before & After

New Perspective

2012-01-06T22:21:00.000-08:00

I have decided to take part in the teleidoscope project ! A new theme each week! I would really like to play around with photo shop as much as I can this year!

This picture consists of 10 pictures! First I did an HDR of the scene (5 pictures) so that the foreground was light enough and the sky was blue. Then I took a series of jumping shots and a few of my hair moving around. I layered my body parts upside down and mirrored and blended them together. Then cropped and added a bokeh texture on top.

Feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions. :)

Here is the hdr and one of my body shots. In the final image i switched out my hand, legs and added some hair.

HDR Photography
High Dynamic Range imaging is a set of techniques that allow a greater dynamic range of luminances between the lightest and darkest areas of an image than standard digital imaging techniques or photographic methods. This wider dynamic range allows HDR images to more accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes, ranging from direct sunlight to faint starlight.

I think I finally got it! Yay!! Heres my favorite one so far...

Inspiring Photographers

2009-07-28T10:07:00.000-07:00

Just wanted to take a moment to notice some of the most amazing photographers of all time!

Ansel Adams (San Francisco, California)
Landscape Photographer and environmentalist
'I hope that my work will encourage self expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us' - Ansel Adams

Irving Penn (American)
Fashion Portrait Photographer (vogue)
“A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it. It is, in a word, effective.

Richard Avedon (American - New York)
Fashion Photographer who photographed the Beatles, Bob Dylan and Marilyn Monroe

And of course.. one of my favs...

Anne Leibovitz
an American portrait photographer (rolling stones) whose style is marked by a close collaboration between the photographer and the subject.
If you haven't seen it already.. rent her documentary "life through the lens" Its absolutely amazing, she is so inspiring (even if you are not a photographer)!

Amanda & Joe ( Wedding Preview)

2009-06-27T17:53:00.000-07:00

The Magic of Low Tech Photography!!

2009-03-01T09:31:00.000-08:00

I'm currently taking a weekend class at ACAD called "The Magic of low tech photography" taught by Dianna Bos, she is an amazing teacher! Yesterday I got to make a pin hole camera out of a coffee container! It is so neat!! Here is a picture of my camera and a few of the shots I processed with it! :)

These are a few of the negative images!

White Balance

2009-03-01T09:23:00.000-08:00

I started advanced photography at sait last Thursday, Last class we went over bit depth, colour space, histograms, light sensors and white balance!

I tried doing a series of shots to help me understand the color changes of white balance, I took the same picture 6 different times not changing anything but the white balance..

White balance (WB) is the process of removing unrealistic color casts, so that objects which appear white in person are rendered white in your photo. Proper camera white balance has to take into account the "color temperature" of a light source, which refers to the relative warmth or coolness of white light. Our eyes are very good at judging what is white under different light sources, however digital cameras often have great difficulty with auto white balance (AWB). An incorrect WB can create unsightly blue, orange, or even green color casts, which are unrealistic and particularly damaging to portraits. Performing WB in traditional film photography requires attaching a different cast-removing filter for each lighting condition, whereas with digital this is no longer required. Understanding digital white balance can help avoid color casts created by your camera's AWB, thereby improving your photos under a wider range of lighting conditions.
