Tell a Lie

Photo of the sunset in Nassau, Bahamas. This week we were challenged to choose a photo that tells a lie" with the expression "the camera never lies" in mind. I chose this photo because in the original picture the moon wasn't nearly as bright and the sky was barely pink and mostly blue, but through the power of editing I was able to change the temperature and saturate the pink tones in the photo....

Leading Lines

Photo of a seafood dish I had in Porto, Portugal. This week we were challenged to create leading lines with food and I found a photo of a meal I had in Portugal where the composition of the potatoes on either side and the bass and squid down the middle along with the placement of the fork and spoon and the circle shape of the plate.

Stranger

A photo of a girl I saw at the parade for March for our Lives a while back. This week we were challenged to take a photo of a stranger and I found this photo of a girl from the March for our Lives parade I had taken. It's one of my favorite photos because of her smile and her sign that she proudly holds above her head. She looks like she 's going to make real change in the world one day.

Serenity

A photo outside my apartment after a rainstorm. This week we were challenged to photograph "serenity", and what that means to us and skies have always been something that truly brings me peace and makes me feel serene.

Lighting

My friend Roo laughing because I'm really funny. This week we were challenged to take a photo and use our speedlite in the process. With this photo taken with my speedlite I captured a beautiful moment; true happiness and I was very pleased with how the composition and lighting highlighted the mood.

Aging

A collection of physical photos throughout the years. This week we were challenged to tell a story about aging and I chose this subject because it shows how much I have aged and how much in my life has changed and how much I have grown and matured.

No Filter

A photo of a sunset from my trip to Portugal. This week we were challenged to take a photo of any subject of our choosing but without editing and filters. I chose a photo I took in Portugal of a beautiful sunset that didn't need a filter.

Negative Space

Out of the airplane window flying from Paris to London. This week we were challenged to take a photo of a landscape showcasing negative space. I found a photo I took in 2018 from my Europe trip and decided it would be a good fit for this prompt with the positioning of the plane wing towards the very right and the negative space of the sky.

Shadow

Shadows from my blinds in my bedroom. This week we were challenged to tell a story using shadows and I decided to take a photo of shadows from my blinds outside my window to show one of my favorite moments when I sleep in on Sunday and slight sunlight creeps through my room to wake me up.

Anonymous

A card from the singing valentine I got in freshman year. This week we were challenged to take a photo inspired by the word anonymous. The first thing that came to mind with that word, was the time I got a singing valentine in freshman year with no name and I still don't know who it's from.
