Collage


This assignment focuses on Don Eldon's collage style portraying a visual statement through the connection of various colors and patterns in every image. In this collage I focused on the idea of moving forward and aspiring for a better future. I used images of hands to create a connection between one image to another revealing the impotence of working together to create a better future. The images of children is a way of emphasizing the importance that rising generations are the future of our world and it is imperative that these generations take control and look forward. The images of street art are left open for interpretation as they convey modernity and individualism. This is my interpretation of Don Eldon's work illuminating a deeper meaning with a collage.

Wedding In Italy


This series of images were taken at my brothers wedding in Italy. In this set I focused on multiple concepts such as landscape photography, rule of thirds, and portraits. I also found the architecture in Italy to be very unique and greatly contrast from the more modern architecture in San Francisco. I edited the color and exposure in some of these images to bring out distinct detail of every subject.

Multi Frame Graphic Notation


This project is a continuation of my previous assignment focused on graphic notation. This cohesive set of images focuses on street art and architecture where I created multi frame images that connect through different leading lines and colors. I did not edit these portraits because I also want to apply the nature of each images shadows and brightness.

Graphic Notation


In photography Graphic notation is an artistic approach of taking pictures and applying the theme or patterns in every image to convey a specific rhythm in music. In this cohesive set of images, I focused on street art and taking pictures of architecture and nature to bring out a concrete pattern that refers to musical symbolism. I edited the exposure and color tone in certain images to bring out the significance of moods and how that relates back to music notation.
