MENTOR VISITS
Back To The Basics
The Return
The never-expected return to something that makes life still feel a little bit normal. Beginning in year 2, Marcia and I have some big things planned.
Rule of Thirds
Incorporating Composition
In shooting football games, there are numerous ways to add a little spice to my photos. The rule of thirds is an easy tool to make for a stronger image.
Vertical vs. Horizontal
Changing the angle
With basketball and soccer, it is highly encouraged to shoot both vertical and horizontal photos in order to have a more dynamic edit.
Finding Moments
Capturing the unseen in soccer
A lot of my photo-taking process consists of finding the small, unseen moments that in a big picture, you wouldn't catch. This is crucial for storytelling.
Final Product
Wrestling with ideas
After several weeks of being unsure of what I wanted my final product to be, and all the details to be included, I finally settled on something incredible.
Culling Football
Condensing into few
Each section of my final product book will have 10-12 images ideally per sport, and with the number of football images I have, it's go-time.
Swim, More Culling
Round 2 but still round 1
Since swim season is over, I decided that swim photos were going to be next on the list for culling. Football started round 2 in the process, as well.
