Commercial Photography

     In this photo is an empty bag of Rice Krispies Treats along with a few of its crumbs. The lighting that I used was "doorway lighting" in order to create a kind of calming mood. There is movement in the plate and crumbs. And the contrasting yellow, makes the blue wrapper, stand out more. 
     I felt like this shot was successful, however, I was at a stand-still with this photo and another photo because the other photo showed the actual product, along with it's chewy texture. Whereas, this one showed the desire for the product and not necessarily the good things about the product.

8* Lighting

     In these photos are my friend, Darrian and my wooden sword. The purpose of this assignment was to explore the effects of different lighting. I chose this model and position because I believe that this model could be given several different moods or emphases. In some photos, Darrian is seen as strong, sad, angered, or proud. And in some photos, the emphasis is change around, from her face, her figure, or the sword.
      I felt as though this photoshoot was very successful, I even went over the requirement of 6 photos. However, I did not like how the positions of my model were subtly different in each photo. But that's a minor issue and could not be helped.
