Self

Assignment: Self Portrait

Medium: silver gelatin

Model: Emma Koide

Comments: As a photographer, I am always the one behind the lens. I like taking pictures of other people. That's why i do what i do. Anyways, that's why this assignment was daunting. Our professor challenged us to go beyond the "senior portrait" style that would be a piece of cake for all of us, but to express something about ourselves that isn't necessarily obvious to the common viewer. Anyways, here are my self portraits.

i like this one because it's ironically one of my favorite ones from this roll. it's ironic because i took it the morning after i took my "real" self portraits. the hair, the lights, the tripod, etc. i really didn't like any of that besides making my hair massive. i took this picture right when i woke up. hey. this is me.
