Photo Story

All right, so - I have a photo story coming up for class.  It's part of our final assignment and is supposed to take a couple of weeks to complete.  The biggest sticking point is timing, lighting, weather, model availability...  All easily overcome with the proper attitude, I guess.

I don't know how I'll execute the shoots properly, but I can already tell they'll be laborious and tangled - by tangled I mean steeped in problems.  Having that sort of outlook - for me - makes it better when things miraculously fall into place.  Murphy and I are distant cousins, I think, and his laws apply to my life like no one else's

Here are some of the shots from last week's portraiture assignment for Photo 101:

Horizontal Portrait

Vertical Portrait

Generational Portrait

Group Portrait (5 or more people)
