Snapshot Aesthetic

Snapshot Aesthetic: Snapshot aesthetic refers to a photograph taken spontaneously and unconsciously, which typically produces a random-looking composition, but at the same time captures a more natural and artless type of feel.

Assignment #8 - Emulation Final

Creative Controls - Depth of Field

This is a portrait of Maggie that shows shallow depth of field, where the main focus is on maggie and the background is more blurry. This photograph was taken at Chapman Park.

This photograph show shallow depth of field as well.

This photograph was taken in my backyard and it shows shallow depth of field. I really enjoyed this photograph because I like the specs of light in the background and I liked the composition of the photograph as well.

This is another example of shallow depth of field, taken in my backyard. 

This photograph shows deep depth of field and was taken this weekend in Laguna Beach.

This photo show deep depth of field, and was also taken at Laguna Beach

Assignment 5: Creative Controls - Motion

Effective Camera Shake - This photo is taken of my brother Jack, and I took this photo by putting my camera settings to a slower shutter speed and then moving my camera quickly from right to left 

Freeze Action - This photo is taken at Director Park of Maggie, as she has just landed in the water, after jumping. For this photo, I set my camera setting to a much faster shutter speed, so that I would be able to get a clear action shot.

Freeze Action - This photo was taken of Maggie at Laurelhurst Park, as she was jumping out of the swing. I put my camera setting to a faster shutter speed to get a clear picture of her in mid air.  

Total Motion - This photo shows total motion because everything in this photograph is moving, including my camera. I set my camera setting to a slow shutter speed and took the photo as I was moving my camera, as well as the Max moving.

Panning - I took this photo of Maggie as she was swinging and moved my camera in the same direction, and at a similar speed as she was moving. 

Slow Motion - This photo was taken at Pioneer Square, and I put my camera settings to a slower shutter speed and took the picture looking down. 

Slow Motion - This photo is taken of my brother, Jack and I did the same thing previously, where I put my camera settings to a slower shutter speed and had him move his lacrosse stick quickly. 

Slow Motion - This photo was taken at Laurelhurst park of maggie running by.
