As we reach the end of this semester, I am thinking back over the information that was learned from our text book. Although I don't feel like I was using a lot of that info in our class, I see how it has been affecting my creative process in my freelance Photography work.
I have been able to see how the background, foreground, and subject[s] are working together, and how to correct it while in process rather than after the fact. I have learned more about placement and the creation of shapes, and how light interacts with these shapes. And I'm sure there is more, but overall, I believe that the textbook we read for this class was one of the most useful textbooks I believe I have ever had for a class.
Overall, I think this class was awesome, and I can't wait to learn more skills in the follow up class next year!
The photo above is an engagement photo I took in which I consciously utilized what I had just read about recently in our text to set it up. I love how this one turned out, and I think it is very visually pleasing and interesting to the eye.
