Environmental

Here are a couple photos for my environmental assignment. I went to my mom's work to shoot. She works at a Christian Bookstore in Snellville. It was a lot of fun. My mom cracks me up and most of these poses she came up with herself. It was all I could do to hold the camera steady while I was laughing so hard. Enjoy!

Glamor

I had the privilege of shooting Emily for my Glamor shoot last week. It was freezing, but I had a blast! She of course looked gorgeous and I'm thrilled with out how it all came out. Every time I get the opportunity to shoot, I learn more and realize how much I love it! Check out more photos of my glamor shoot on Flickr.

Executive Photo

Last Monday my class got to shoot photos of some of the staff at Gwinnett Technical College. It was a great experience! A little nerve racking, but helped us to be able to think on our feet as far as what to shoot, how to shoot it, the lighting and what not. My subject was Jerry Miller, the electrician. He was a really nice guy and we had a lot of fun!
Ahhh I forgot to put this, but I really want to thank Josh (my assistant) and John for helping me last week to shoot this! Couldn't have done it without y'all! Thanks a lot!

Clark University

So, me, Do, Rosira and Suchi all went to go shoot some photos of Bill Clinton speaking late this afternoon in Atlanta. We wanted to take are cameras and try to get some shots while we were there to use our photojournalism skills. Ha! It was such a great experience! Kinda scary, fun, exciting and something I won't forget. I have many stories from it. Of course it all was running late and I had to leave, so I never got to shoot Clinton, the main thing! Kinda messed up right? But I had fun, got some shots and learned a lot. So, I guess it was worth it all, check out some of my shots if you like.

Heeeeeelp!!!!

Hey Everybody, I'm trying to get my header to fit in the box and it's going just over the edge on one side. I've tried to crop and do stuff to it, but it's not working. Does anyone know how to fix this? Please let me know if you do! Thanks so much!

Michael the Mentor with focusing

OK, here is another video with Michael the Mentor. Some of y'all probably know all about this, but there are certain things I didn't know our cameras could do. So, even though I only have a Canon 20D, and this video is for a Canon 50D, I found it very interesting.

Helen First Baptist Church

Today me and Emily and Do all went up to Helen to shoot some photos of this church (Helen First Baptist Church) in Helen for their website. Emily had the connection there and asked us to assist her. It was a great experience! Every time I shoot I learn new things. Working with my flash helps and talking and meeting new people is a neat thing. The people at the church were so friendly and so welcoming, what a neat thing to get to do what you love, learn, meet people and work with your friends! I hope we get to go back and shoot more! Check out some more!

hmmm can anyone guess? More Header choices!!!!

Ok, I've been making a lot of posts about my header. I'm still trying to work on it so here are a couple more options that I've made a few changes to from the last headers. Thanks for all the comments! But if y'all can let me know again what you think that would be awesome! Thanks!

I'm a pro...well, kinda

I finally changed to a pro in Flickr. So, now I can put as many photos as I want up and have as many sets as I want, which is great. So, you can go check out my stuff on Flickr!

Header 2

Here is another header that I changed just slightly. I moved my name to the middle, and took the red letter in design away. Let me know if you all like this one better! Thanks!

My Nieces

Here are some photos I had to shoot for my photojournalism class. They are my sister's dogs (Dixie and Scarlet) and are a lot of fun! I really enjoyed shooting them playing with each other. Dogs are like in kids in that they do crazy, random things. This makes it fun for me! The girls also love to play through the fence with their neighbor dog, Chloe. I found it quite difficult at first, because they are constantly moving, which is also a good thing in itself. However, it kept me on my toes, but I had a lot of fun! Enjoy

Header

I've been trying to work on my blog and I found this template I liked and so I wasn't satisfied with my photo of the barn so I changed it to the railroad tracks. Let me know what you all think! Thanks!

Fill Flash

In Photojournalism class we have a fill flash assignment thats due. Here are a few photos I shot Sunday late afternoon. I shot my sister by a lake at Stone Mountain Park. It was getting pretty cold when we were shooting, but it was a lot of fun. I tried to use a white board and bounce my flash off of it, to create a soft box affect. Thanks Jessica for the good tips! Hope you enjoy! Click here for more

Wedding

Here are a couple photos from a wedding I shot back in October. It was my first wedding and definitely a great experience. Hope you enjoy!

Post Election

Today for Photo Journalism, our assignment was to shoot something to do with the election the day after. I went to a voter registration office and saw that Channel 2 and Fox 5 was there with their cameras. I went in and ended up getting to shoot some of them interviewing people. It was pretty exciting! The first photo is a lady that was a worker counting the ballots. In Gwinnett, the absentee ballots would not go through the counting machines so they had to count them all by hand. This lady stayed all night. The second photo is Gwinnett County's Media Relations and Publications Manager. She explained to the press the situation.

Lex

Here is a photo of my dog, Lex. He is almost one years old. I love this photo, it captures his personality. Enjoy

cute little squirrel

So, I took some photos of a cute squirrel that was in one of my trees at my house. I couldn't believe how long he stayed there! I got tons of shots of him which I will put up later. But here is one that I took. He was a great model! :)
