Rachel Stewart Head Shot



ISO: 160
APP: 4.0
SS: 200

I volunteered to take a head shot of Rachel for a lunch spread in the year book. I was told to choose a different spot to take the head shot because normally I just shoot them in the court yard so there is a green back ground but since I take a lot of head shots they're all starting to look the same. I just took this on on the outside of the court yard where I could still get good lighting but have a different background.

Girls Varsiry Basketball Game





ISO: 800
APP: 2.8
SS: 160
I volunteered to shoot the varsity girls basketball game against Greenville. This was a challenge for me because I had only shot one basketball game before this and was almost getting the hang of it. Im not really happy with my pictures because I didn't get a lot and most of the ones I did get didn't have the "wow" effect I was looking for.  After being hit with the ball 5 times and being sick I think it effected my attitude about the game. I think they are usable images I just think i need a bit more practice. This game wasn't a fun one for me.

Boys Basketball JV



ISO: 1600
APP: 4.0
SS: 250
I volunteered to shoot the jv boys basketball team play lobo at six. This was my first time to ever shoot a basketball game. It was fun but scary at the same time because I didn't know what I was doing. Shooting wasn't difficult, it was the trying to figure out what to shoot that had me worried. Israel told me not to shoot free throws or jump shots so that was the only thing I really knew not to do. I think I got some okay shots for it being my first time but I deffinatly want to do better next time. Now I sort of have an idea of what to shoot so I'm hoping next time I can get some better pictures. Also, most of my pictures were blurry so I will need to play with my settings some before shooting.

Landen Ryden Headshot



ISO: 160
APP: 2.5
SS: 200
I volunteered to take a head shot of Landen Ryden. I actually really like the way these head shots turned out. I played with my settings before I went and got him and got it to where my colors in the background were really vivid and the subject is lit up. I think these photos are usable for the yearbook and I wouldn't change the way I did anything. The assignment was pretty easy, like I said in past blogs head shots have become much easier for me since I've had plenty of practice.

Raven Morris Headshot


ISO: 200
APP: 1.8
SS: 150
I volunteered to take a head shot of Raven Morris for a volunteer spread for yearbook. This assignment was relatively easy. Head shots used to be one of my worst areas but now that I've started taking as many as I can so its gotten a lot easier. I think the photos are usable and they could be used in the yearbook for whatever spread. At first I had some trouble with my settings because it was dark in the courtyard and then super sunny in certain parts but i adjusted my settings a little brought my ISO down and turned the flash off and the images looked much better.
