April 18th, 2022 Abelardo Morell By: Connor Albaugh                It is crazy to think that we are only two weeks away from the end of the semester. In the time that we have been in this class, there have been so many poignant presentations and photographers that we were able to cover and analyze. These served as a good way not only to admire and think critically about an artists work, but as a way in which one was able to display their creativity through their own unique style of photography. As an aspiring photographer myself, I found these as opportunities to grow technically and visually on behalf of what I am able to capture through the lens of my camera. Over these two semester, there have been easy and hard assignments, both of which I handled well. I learned a lot through doing these assignments and I went to do as much as experiment with my camera and found out what it was capable of. For this last assignmen...

Wether it be a photographer's background, their style, or an impact they have had, there is always that one thing I take away that I deem meaningful for my own photography knowledge and improvements. We are nearing the end of an incredibly odd semester. This happens to be the second to last blog scheduled in this class and it seems like I typed the first one yesterday. For how weird this semester has been, it has flown by and I have been able to learn quite a lot about new photography strategies and about different photographers who all have their own unique touch.                With this being said, it is time to take a deep glimpse into another photographer. The photographer at hand here is not exactly the style that I try to mimic in my assignments ...

Taking the time to view photographs or artwork from a specific photographer or artist can only help us. It can give us certain ideas, touch up on some technical aspects, and give us a general idea of how some of the best photographers portray their work. With this in mind, it would certainly pose as a learning experience for me and many others because the aspects taken into account for each photo you view or on behalf of a certain photographer can not only improve our techniques, but provide another view or angle that one may not have noticed. With this in mind, the photographer we are taking a look at today is a very interesting one. H...
