"Light" Final


Through this short series, I’m narrating a story about the desire, struggle, and accomplishment to be connected with the earth. Using high key lighting to symbolize nature, and giving the phrase, “walking into the light” a whole new meaning. Most people understand that phrase as dying or dead. The way I used it is that “light” is life; and instead of “walking”, I’m attempting to connect to Mother Earth and be at peace to feel alive.

"Light" Book Project- in proces

This is my first image, and for the most part I believe is pretty much done. I'd like to do this to my other images, but throughout the narrative I'll be adding more layers of flowers to push my concept even more. And here are the other images I will be working with, but are variable to changing.

A2 Final_ The Elephant Stampede







My goal with these images was to create a stampede of toy elephants going through and making themselves comfortable in our city, Sarasota. The toy elephants that I used for this project are very tiny, no bigger than an inch off the ground; so it was quite a challenge to photograph. I chose to go with a square format because when I imagined them in my head, I saw these images going into a realistic children's book. However, creating six fully-completed images by deadline was difficult. To be able to have all six completed, these images are basically rough-edits. For the final project, I'm going to edit down to three and fine-tune them to perfection!
