Morphing

 

 I created this during pre-college over the summer. I figured I'd post it since I had to combine all the photos into one file for my portfolio. The idea behind this was to morph one person into another.



Something Old, Something Used

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

During pre-college I was given the prompt 'Something Old, Something Used' for a photo. Well I chose the first photo where I combined two photos of an old truck I found in my family's barn. But I never showed anyone the other photos that I took that night. So, here they are.



Newspaper Dresses

 

 

For my final series for MIAD pre-college last month, I did a series of newspaper dresses. These were my three favorite shots, one of each of my models. The inspiration for this came from multiple sources. Originally I was considering a contest where you would create dresses out of duct tape for prom. However, I ran out of time and that really wasn't for me. Then I was given the opportunity to do Visioneers.  The overall theme was basically 'Less is More'. So I decided to do fashion shots since I want to become a fashion photographer. The idea was less waste, more recycling. Less expense on materialistic items, more expense on creativity and experiences. I also wanted to get across how many more uses there are in everyday items. However, I failed to complete any operational dresses in time. The project was moved to a summer project of mine. Yet that didn't work out either due to my busy schedule. When it came to pre-college we were told to take risks with our work. After failing at all other attempts, I took a leap of faith and it worked. All of these dresses were created using only newspaper and tape. I plan on expanding this series and eventually making it into a book titled 'Recycle Me'.
