A nice trip to Stanford University’s campus allowed for some interesting interactions with the decor. As I found these amazing sphere sculptures around the engineering quad and I thought to take some photos.

I got the chance to use some lighting rigs and I loved the backlit kind of style that was portrayed here. I was able to carve out my face and body using these lights and it was a lot of fun to do it. This was one of my favorites and experimenting with the lights

This is the Hoover Tower, the highest point in all of Stanford and is a one of the oldest parts too. I took this photo for my Documentary Project but it didn’t make the cut but as a center frame portrait, I thought it was perfect.

With this photo, I was completing the prompt of “Balance of Holiday Traditions” which I personally took as Christmas which I celebrate with my family. I specifically viewed the ornaments because that is my favorite part of the holiday which is decorating the tree with family.

This prompt was for leading lines and I wanted to utilize a skill I learned earlier in class which was long light exposure times to the subject which would have the camera take in as much light as possible in a certain amount of time. This resulted in the tail light trails from the cars

I took this photo for the symmetry landscape at Stanford because I loved the architecture and really enjoyed photographing the campus. I centered my camera between the arches then I put the photo into Adobe Lightroom and edited it by cropping and color grading it.

This blog is supposed to capture a motion. I took this photo of my wrestling teammate in the middle of a match, and I think this image really shows the intensity of wrestling. Wrestling is definitely the toughest sport in the world and the athletes go relatively anonymous, so I wanted to display wrestling more.
