For this final assignment, we were tasked with another self-portrait. I was thinking about doing another reading picture but opted for a happier picture instead. In this one I am smiling in the sunshine as opposed to the first one where I apparently look quite cross. This assignment required me to adjust my ISO to …

Andy Hanson Exhibit Write Up
On Friday, December 6, 2019 Xavier and I went to the Andy Hanson: Picturing Dallas, 1960-2008 exhibit. We both were blown away by some of the celebrities, musicians, politicians and just interesting people that Hanson was able to photograph. I chose the three pictures above to include in this assignment because they were some of …
Thanksgiving Photo Story
This assignment was far and away the most fun one yet. I had a great time photographing my family over Thanksgiving. I definitely will continue to document the holidays I have left with my family. The toughest challenge I faced with this assignment had to do with the lighting. Our kitchen was not the best …
Choice Assignment 2
This image was taken during rush hour traffic in New York City. It was an absolute mad house outside and this lady kept on keeping on despite getting honked at and cursed at by many a New Yorker. I commend this woman. This image took place close to Brooklyn. Brooklyn would be a cool place …

We took these pictures outside around 2:45 PM in the afternoon in Dallas, Texas. This allowed for the sun to provide optimal shade so I could complete the assignment. I had her wear …
The Munch Chronicles
For this assignment we had to shoot images using our phone camera instead of an actual camera. This made this week’s assignment the easiest one yet. It also made it very convenient given my guest for the weekend. This past weekend I had to look after my friend Sophia’s dog Munch as she was out …
Assignment #8
For this week’s assignment I decided to shoot at the Texas State Fair. This was my first time ever attending the Texas State Fair. I had a great time and successfully ate my body weight in fried food. The first image is of Big Tex. Big Tex is a Texas State Fair icon that goes …
Fall Break Assignment
My younger brother Will is my best friend. When him and his girlfriend came back for Fall Break 2019 I knew I had a great opportunity for this assignment. Fall in Colorado had just begun and I thought that the two visiting Kansas Jayhawks would be great subjects. This was probably my favorite assignment to …
