Remember that first sunset you saw that was truly magical and caught your eye? Well, I look for scenes wherever I go that inspire that same feeling. My style of photography blends natural scenes with varying levels of post editing to bring out the potential of a scene, or to create something entirely new.
Image 7: Angel (Light Painting)
IMAGE 1
A close-up photograph to display detail and depth. This was a part of my first photos. I would use this style for product photography and close-up portaits (see image 5).
IMAGE 2
A deep depth landscape photo. This style displays vast amounts of detail for a large scene. This was taken along with image 1 to display depth. Useful for large scenes with lots of details (see image 1).
IMAGE 3
Zooming over time is one way to depict motion in an image. This image creates symmetry which draws the eyes inward. Longer exposure times leave room for more motion, like for light painting (see image 7).
IMAGE 4
This photo was a part of a story series. I enhanced it in lightroom to achieve a more satisfying effect that matched with the theme of the story. Similar color adjustments were also used in images 5, 6, and 7.
IMAGE 5
This psychological portrait was designed with a contemplative feel. Other style portaits of this degree can range greatly in effect, depending on lighting and positioning of the person.
IMAGE 6
Moving water is a lot of fun to photograph. Here I poured water onto a glass object, then choose 1 out of 50 photos to edit. Resulting in the sharp, clear, and color adjusted image shown.
IMAGE 7
Light painting is a photographic technique where a light source is moved around a scene over a long exposure time. The resulting image shows the path the light traveled, much like a trail of paint from a paintbrush.
There are a lot of details in the world, and a lot of different ways to interpret them. The goal of any given photograph I do is to make something from it. Starting with what scene I choose, and then however I choose to enhance that scene afterwards, each image is, in its own right, unique. Of course, along the way there are several other steps involved to get a satisfying image, that is the general pattern I follow for each project.
