Studio Photo Recap

Today was the last day of the EVIT school year, and although I will be returning next year, I am very sad to be without that creative outlet the entire summer. I can't believe it's been a year since I started it and me and my sappy self can't help but remember how much I did not want to go that stupid 'graphic design' class. Where I would learn nothing about photography. And boy... was I wrong! I feel like there is no better place that I could learn about photography AND graphic design. I learned from experience, with real job and real people. Not just from a textbook. Anyways. I'm getting ahead of myself. Here's a recap of this year's studio photos, from the beginning to end. It's crazy to see the difference!


The picture above is from the very first studio photo shoot I ever participated in. I was so nervous, but fell in love with it!

Skydiving

All right so I've been pretty horrible with getting around to edit these pictures, but a couple months ago my Dad and uncles decided to go skydiving and asked me to to come along as the photographer. I really like these shots because they didn't even know I was there. I mean.... c'mon. They're about to jump out of a plane. They weren't noticing me and my five foot little frame at all!





The pictures above is probably my favorite of the day. Can't you just feel the excitement?

Cami: Senior


I've known Cami since we were in primary, and she is one of the most amazing and strong people I know. It was a complete privilege to take her senior pictures, and I hope these pictures do her justice!

These past two weeks we've been doing fashion shoots at EVIT, of the outfits the fashion students have been designing all year. Even though it's for the student's portfolios, and close ups aren't really needed, I can't help but use that oh-so-amazing lens to zoom in and capturing their beautiful faces! Working in the studio is definitely a challenge, you have to be a people person to make the model comfortable in front of the camera and comfortable with you, but the photographers at EVIT face that head on!
