Eliza and Fan

June 2010
Another photo from the studio. Kind of a silly one but I like it. Developed with high B+W contrast.

A view from the studio I'm interning at. A classic New York scene.

A Scene of Oregon

August 2007
Taken with a disposable camera but I love the old, aged look it gives the photo. I developed this with direct positive.

Katie's Jump

June 2010
Another high B+W contrast development, I know I need to take some more photos! I'm having too much fun with lightroom though.

Mt. Evans Rocks

May 2010
A pyramid of rocks at the top of Mt. Evans. The sky was a crazy blue. I guess that's what happens at 14,240 feet high.

High B+W contrast.

Jump, for My Love

June 2010
Playing around in the studio with some of my favourite jump shots. I was trying to get some fun, high contrast, B+W photos that kind of appeared to be 'behind-the-scenes' of a photo shoot.

Curtain

June 2010
Eliza sitting by the curtain. This is a 'direct positive,' almost giving the image a painting look. (If you couldn't tell I'm practicing on all my shots from this day, so you may see a few of these for a while...).

Lounging Around

June 2010
Eliza in the studio getting ready. High B+W Contrast- I like it, it's completely over the top.

Portrait of Katie

June 2010
So later in the day Katie came in and of course I took photos of her. I developed this one with cool tone. These are the kinds of photographs I used to do much more of in high school so it's really nice going back to them.

Portrait of Eliza

June 2010
A portrait of Eliza that I took at the studio I'm interning at. I used it to practice my Lightroom skills and am obsessed with the different developing techniques. I used B+W high contrast for this one. It's a little over the top but I like it.

NJ Prom

June 2010
There were so so many people at the pre-prom held by our family friends the BC's. This photo in no way does it justice, since it eliminates the whole house full of parents and relatives swarming the balcony. I kind of liked the Antique development on this photo.

The castle in Menthon St-Bernard.

Duck

June 2010
A duck by the water in front of the Lincoln Memorial (I can't recall the name of it, and more often like to think of it as the pond from Forrest Gump).

The Symphony

June 2010
Another symphony picture. Marco and I sat right behind the orchestra which was awesome! You got to see things you usually don't have the chance to see, as in the conductors very strange facial expressions.

DC Sunset

The setting sun as seen from the top of the Kennedy Center.

DC Metro

June 2010
The metro in DC. I believe this is the Bethesda stop.

Orchestra

June 2010
On Wednesday night, Marco and I went to the Kennedy Center to see the symphony. In between pieces this man stayed on stage with the surrounding music.

English Sunset

July 2009
A sunset as seen from Kate's parents' house.

Pink and Cream

June 2010
I just noticed these beautiful flowers in our garden today. It inspired me to go back to my favourite 'macro picture of flower.'

Flowers from our backyard in Colorado.

Oregon Coast

July 2007
The beautiful coast of Oregon. This photo is a little old and has endured many months on my bulletin board, so please excuse the scratches.

I'm still going to continue LAYL when I'm abroad!

The woods by our cousins' house near Sheffield in England.

Bahamian Sticks

June 2007
These fallen trees on a beach at Spanish Cay reminded me of the Elephant Graveyard in The Lion King. I loved the patterns that the branches made.

Yellow Chandelier

August 2009
Another chandelier in Chatsworth.
