This week, the prompt was to “make a creative pose on how you think others see you”. This was really hard, because I both don’t know how others see me, and I know everyone probably sees me pretty differently. One thing I remember people telling me was that I was…

This week’s prompt was to create an image that looks like an advertisement for your favorite modern convenience! I took this photo on a google meets with my friends (Aditi and Sofia) while working on a project together, and I thought it fit this prompt pretty well. Being able to…

This week our photo is meant to tell a story about one of the seven deadly sins, and I chose envy. I took this photo on the Steven’s Creek Trail, and I’m pretty sure it’s a thistle, which reminded me of envy because of how pretty yet prickly it is….

This week, the prompt was to tell a story using Film Noir. This photo is a bit old, but I thought it looked just like an alleyway a detective would run through or hide in. The dark, almost greyscale colors with the somewhat harsh lighting (especially the reflection in the…

This week’s prompt was to take a long exposure photo at night to celebrate the new year. While I didn’t take this photo on New Years, I took it at night when I went to Mercy Bush Park with my friends, and I spent New Years with them too so…

This week’s prompt was to tell a story using silhouettes! I took this photo of three birds against the sky, and I loved how the bottom two are looking towards the top one. It feels like they’re having a conversation, or they’re listening to the top bird explain a mischievous…

I chose to tell the story of my mom for this prompt (or at least, a story about her). She loves robotics, and has made lots of robots over the years but this is one of the more recent projects. It’s called the robot choir, and the little robots will…

I wasn’t quite sure what to do for the prompt “your culture”. I wanted to explore trans culture, or more broadly queer culture, but I wasn’t sure how best to make that clear. In the end, I chose a photo of my two best friends and I, when we sat…

This week’s prompt was to tell the story of flowers! This photo was quite spontaneous. I walked out into my backyard to take a photo of a flower, and found there were a ton of California poppies taking over everything. They grew through this chair, and it looked almost post-apocalyptic….
