For our last project of the year, we had to create a beautiful photo in an ugly location, create a photo with backdrop and an additional light, and take one of those photos and turn it into a magazine cover. This project made us use all the skills we have learned throughout the year and…

Most people, when they think of photography, don’t think of being blind while working in photography. We looked into who Pete Eckert is and how he does photography. He went bling when he was in his 20s. He started to take an interest in photography after going blind. Before taking his pictures, he uses his…

#BookFace is a project where you line up your face, arm, leg, or whatever with the cover of the book. We had to find two books and match our features to the books. This was a little challenging because the books aren’t necessarily to scale. I had fun with this project. I went to my…

For this project, we had to go out in the world and find letters of the alphabet. These could be an I in a brick, a Y in the trees, or a L from a bench. This project was so much fun, mainly because we got to walk around the school, but also because it…

We had to create four landscapes, one made from food, one from a magazine, and two from objects representing another (like seeing a cannon in a carved apple). It may sound simple, but it wasn’t as easy as you might think. It was, for me at…

Some people hide from it. Some embrace it. Others live with it. If you look…

Hello!! I got back from fall break. I didn’t realize that being at home for a few days was not a thing when my parents were in school. Times have changed. We are off school for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. It was good for me because I got to sleep in for a little before…

This was a project based on the elements of art. We had a project in class where we had to go out and take pictures that we felt best suited for each element. There were eleven different photos after the time given. These are some of my pictures, what people thought and which one was…

This is my vision board that I created. My birthday is in September, and I am excited. My dream car is a black Jeep. I plan on graduating from high school and going to college (LSU…unless I feel led otherwise)… Don’t ask what I am going for… I have no idea. I am in the…
