Photo #3...Another one took outside during the night...i really like the lighting.
Photo #2....This one was taken at night after all the snow finally stop coming down. i like the lighting in this picture, it gives the blues, greens and purples of the winter. even yellows from the light look great against the white snow.
OK so this is my series of four. In my series I wanted to show that Mirrors can explain my life. It like how the mirror reflex my life through the appearance i wear or the emotions i can put on my face, and all of this is reflected back to me. The story behind these mirror series is that when growing up, i was a depressed child who constantly was tying to be reached by people around me so they could help me out of my dark and lonely childhood. i never cared about how i looked to the world and how my emotions were betrayed to others. i also never lived as a child who followed routines of a normal child's life. i was a mess growing up, but when everything around me settled down, and took its break from destroying the person i once was. i started to clean my life up, shape it and molded it in to a normal life, so i practice my emotions and how to hide them, also how to pick up a routine in living a day, like showering, appearance checks, sports that interact with others, and of course a bedtime were i could get the rest i needed before i started the whole living a day again. I asked my friend Becca to pose for me in this series of my meaning of a mirror and how i see it. she agreed because she knows how it is to be like me. i didn't really have to ask her how to pose, she seem to know what was expected. Lighting in my pictures were hard to bare since i didn't really plan the lighting to well. i short of went by the lighting that was provided in the room i used. Then once on the computer i enhanced the light and contrast, along with the expose. That why my series might look a tad bit on the bright side. Over all my series explains the practice and the shape of a new life i took up to cover the pass that i don't want to uncover again. living it once was enough, this is how this series explains my life.
Lauren Greenfield did a project called Thin...she traveled over the states to talk and photograph women and teenage girls who have or had a eating disorder. i liked her pictures because she brings meaning to her work. she uses color to make things be seen in different views.
Here i used my friend Becca to create a theme of a girl who is overlooking every faw of her body, manly being fat.
Another project that Lauren Greenfield did was Teenage Popcultured world. she once again travel to areas of states where the pop culture really is alive in young adult or teens. she photograph many different teens around the united states. here i took a picture of my friend Becca...like Lauren Greenfield she had many singled one person in her pictures.
OK so this is my first night photo. it turned out pretty sweet, but for some reason i don't know if it is what i need? what do you think?
This is the other photo, i call it passing spirt. i like it alot, it looks like some supernatural spirt is leaving out though a window.
