Photo #7: Equine Life

Assignment: For this photo assignment, I decided to do Equine Life, to show what my life is like. I captured my favorite horses, what goes into riding, and my favorite barn cat! This assignment was so much fun, considering it gave me an excuse to visit the barn on a Sunday afternoon.

Photoshop Assignment #5: Dictionary

Assignment: In this assignment, we were asked to take 3 words from the dictionary, and make photoshop edits out of them. I chose the words ocean, inspire, and sing, because those 3 words are a big part of my life. Here's the finished products:

Photoshop Assignment #4: Open Tutorial

Assignment: In this assignment, we were asked to look for photoshop tutorials online, so that we could make our own version of the outcome. Mine was a tutorial on how to make an underwater apartment, with a girl in it and lots of textures and stuff like that. I took the basic idea, and deviated from it a lot. I made an "Orca Room," with two orcas in it. The room to me looks more like a tank than a fairytale underwater room. If you look up images of orcas swimming underwater, the water colors and textures look very similar. I like the outcome very much.

Photo Assignment 6: People

Assignment: In this assignment I used some photos I took of my friend Mona at our barn with her lesson horse Willow. Willow was a joy to shoot with because she's so patient and pretty much doesn't move. Mona had a lot of fun with this shoot, and so did I.

Photoshop Assignment #3: Deep Blue Saline

Assignment: In this assignment we were required to change the context of our school, Saline High School. The night before we were assigned this project, I had watched a movie called "Deep Blue Sea" with my best friend, which gave me the idea for "Deep Blue Saline." I brought this to life using my favorite animal in my favorite part of campus. I absolutely love the pond in front of the school, so I decided to incorporate my favorite animal, killer whales, in the photo. I also used a sea lion, because I got to hug one and spend time with one back in November, so I have a soft spot for them. Here's the final product:
