for this assignment, I needed to create a picture that used color to make it an interesting photo. I’ve taken pictures of my mom’s plant lab before, but I decided to add a contrasting plastic plant to be the focus of the photo. I love how the pink and lime green stand out in theContinue reading “Color”

Product Photography
I used a mini light studio to take pictures of various objects and products. These types of photos don’t require too much editing, besides maybe the background. The first photo features my favorite drink, Kombucha (root beer flavor ONLY). I regret not spraying it with water, but the idea still comes across. The second photoContinue reading “Product Photography”
More Photo Editing…
The technique I was dying to try was adding a vintage edit to a photo. I used my dad’s giant calculator he uses for his accounting. To set the scene, i added his “fraud investigation” mousepad next to it, and his stacks of books and papers in the back. Luckily for me, there was alreadyContinue reading “More Photo Editing…”
Black and White
One of the most important thing in taking a black and white photo is creating a photo interesting enough to lose the color. A great way to keep an artistic look is textures, which is why I used wood as my subject. The big apple tree that fell down on my grandparents garden was veryContinue reading “Black and White”
Landscape
For this assignment, I had to take a landscape photo. A landscape must include eye-pleasing visual, and are mostly far away shots. I took a picture of the temple in bountiful.

Yo, it’s me Liz. I submitted one of my photo’s to Guru Shots. I knew which one I wanted to do for two reasons. One, it was shiny and I love taking pictures of shiny things. Two, I loved the background and the overall feel that the picture gives. I have used this picture inContinue reading “Another contest”
MACRO
Today I zoomed into the world of Macro. Using a Macro tube, I took pictures of regular every-day items and turned them into something unique and interesting. I have included in this post some of my favorites including water droplets, flowers, and jewelry.
Animated Logo
I use the same signature on all of my digital drawings. It’s simple and plain, so using Adobe After Effects, I tried to give it a little pizzazz. The first thing I did was import a photo of my hand-drawn signature, and trace it with the pen tool. Then I increased the stroke and createdContinue reading “Animated Logo”
VOGUE MAGAZINE COVER
You would probably think I landed the cover of Vogue’s March edition, but this was just a fun project I did in my free time. Since I worked pretty hard on this in Photoshop and InDesign, I will share my process with you. After taking this lovely picture of myself outside, I took it intoContinue reading “VOGUE MAGAZINE COVER”
masks and levitation
This was a fun and easy assignment. To create the illusion that someone is floating, first you must take two photos. It is necessary for your camera to be stable; a tripod is strongly recommended. What I did was first take a picture of my mom sitting on a chair: Then I took another pictureContinue reading “masks and levitation”
