random collection...

this polaroid is from the fall... outside of my window.


this is one from a number of pictures micah and i took pumpkin carving in october. i just especially like this one.


this is a technique called TtV (through the viewfinder). i was just experimenting with it three or four months ago. i love the look of it.






these two were taken during my first few weeks of class in the fall. i was out finding "e"s for my typography assignment.



aaand these are the recents. i'm in a "digital photography for non-majors" class and to be honest... it kind of sucks. we have to use our point and shoot digital cameras (lucky for me i have a nice one) and i'm the only one in the class with a substantial amount of photography experience. i'm not trying to sound conceited or cocky in anyway, its just difficult when we're going over what f-stop and aperture, shutter speed and depth of field all mean. it's just boring, and not what i was expecting. i suppose what i assumed it would be is more of a digital imaging (editing digital photos and learning new techniques and photoshop/lightroom tricks) i guess refreshment is always a good thing... im just sick of being stuck in the basic photography. i was an AP photo student in high school - i feel like i am selling myself short.

ANYWAY.. for our first assignment we had to create a collection of 10 photos with a theme of "close to home" (things that are important to us or are literally close to home). so i chose to do things that were incredibly important in my life. as i was shooting i discovered the first few things i photographed all had a circular shape, so i tried to continue that relationship throughout my work... check it out:

cheap thrills!

this is a rough of a poster im working on for eskell and these other boutiques. i still have some editing to do, but felt the need to share. i'm pretty pleased with the outcome thus far..



this is the ad i produced for them in december..

things have been looking up and only hope things continue on this path. i found out i got a ninety-six on my final typography project. psyched about that. a trip to europe to work for a design firm out there may be in store this summer..and i did some design work for eskell.

also, summer of 2009 i plan on going to Rome for...


yes. i am that big of a nerd.
