Summer Safari!!!

  1. Find an image- a portrait, action shot, scene. ect.- FOR EACH SCHOOL SPORT/ACTIVITY that you think should be photographically recreated next year for the book.
  • Soccer:
    Mens-
    So this shot is from a Timbers away game against the Earthquakes on July 27th of this year.


    I think that this shot would be good because players don’t realise what kind of faces they make during their games, and if you get the right one, it can look quite good.

    Womens-


    (portland’s thorns)
    I like the action shot (top one) because the photographer got a lot of the players feet off the ground, so it looks very interesting. The action shot (bottom one) is nice because the one player is in color, so that is where your eye is drawn first. This might be a good shot for the teams MVP.
  • Cheerleading
    I think that this would be a good way to go about the shot because you see the progression. Maybe get a shot like this at the beginning and the end of the year to show how much they have improved.


  • Cross Country
    This one would be good for doing maybe the best runners from each grade

    This might be a nice alternative to the normal cross country team portraits

    I like this one because they got it so that their aperture focus was only on the one runner.
  • Dance Team
    I thought that these would be a different way for yearbook to do their team photos for dance thats not the standard way.


    I thought these would be a cool way to go about action shots



  • Football
    I thought that this might be a nice idea for MVP’s of all the Football teams or something along those lines.

    I was thinking it’s a good shot of a player taking some time to themselves to get back to reality after being in the hustle and bustle of the game.

    Since this is Oregon, I figured that we would have a lot of opportunities to do a shot like this.
  • Volleyball
    I think that this would be a good action shot, because it shows one of the very few pauses in a volleyball game.

    It would be a good action shot, and doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to get.
    This would be a good portrait photo.
  • Water Polo

2.  Look at websites, magazines, tumblrs, blogs, movies, television (and anything else) for ideas about current trends and innovated in:
4. ICE BREAKERS for getting to know each other in September:
  • What are you looking forward to doing most in Yearbook
  • Have you done any other types of yearbook related classes (photography 1, Journalism, etc.)
  • What do you think you will find the most challenging in this class? What do you hope to learn?

Photo Project


  

Signature Photo:
A Freshmen girl from Canby High school is taking a break from carting plants around. Their art department is having them raise money to go on a trip to Europe. 


Overall Shot:
The plant stations from many local businesses getting ready for people to start coming in. 


Close-up:
A beautiful flower that one of the stands had.

Portrait: 
My Sister, who was not actually posing for this one, she was actually smelling this dwarf lemon tree. She never explained WHY she was smelling the lemon tree, she just thought that it smelled nice. 

Interaction: 
This photo was inspired by the street photography project that we had earlier this year. I thought this one, however, turned out better than that project had. 



How-To-Sequence: 
 Another girl from Canby High School who was actually doing the job they were hired for, which was to cart around your plants for you, and then you could tip them once you were done picking out your plants.

This was one of the first signs on the stands at this market . This was probably one of the best signs. 

Clincher:

We ended up getting two tomato plants, one blueberry bush, and my little sisters each got one flower plant.

Flower Power








Exquisite Corpse


This picture was made by the people in my photography class. What I find ironic because this photo kind of describes my sister. I love how they made sure that when the photos overlapped, they blended them.
