I’m taking Digital Photography 2 at school, which I will probably remember encompassing a Ouija board in the not-quite-converted dark room. Here’s the most other photographical evidence of the rest of the class.

Leah was my favorite model, though she too had hair-tie and bra-strap issues.

For the life of her, that girl could not stop looking directly at the camera!

Unfortunately, Jen could not stop looking directly at the camera.

Varsha had the sexiess bra...which I began two despise after the 234230th time editing it out.

Varsha on the right.

As it was my first time using more than 2 models and shooting in a semi-studio setting, I didn’t know (or feel in-the-element enough) to check all the models before the shoot. So on top of trying to figure out  school’s Canon Rebels on the go and having people everywhere, I had models with way too much clothes on. I would pay for that later with hours of editing out straps and ties and lighting issues and girls not properly positioned. And by straps I do not mean of the sexy-garter variety.

This makes me want to try shooting a photoshoot! Lol @ the hair ties… I wouldn’t have noticed if you hadn’t mentioned it.

The first picture of this entry is gorgeous :)

Thank you – it was also my favorite picture of the 2 shoots. If you want to do a photoshoot, I say go for it! Just grab a couple of your friends (ie, bully them into it) and you’re off!

Man, this looks exciting. I think there is only one photography class at my school, and it is wasted on the Multimedia Academy kids, who, sadly enough, are the worst at multimedia of any kind.

I wish I could take photos.

And by the way, already looking for a new host, and my parents are caving, caving…

Haha – I’ve come to terms that most people take photo class because its the easy way out, and they are neither ‘good’ nor dedicated. You think maybe once your parents cave into getting your own hosting, you might want to try a dslr? That’s actually quite hard, since they run a lot more…

Feel free to stay on df.com for as long as you need to. The domain name doesn’t run out for another year and a half. Heh.

My goodness you are detailed oriented! Perfect career in photography. I like the hair being backlit in the first photo. When I was a student many of my friends used free models from craigslist for exchange of photos. The ones with a bit of experience are easy and eager to work with you. Try it!

Why thank you, but I don’t plan on taking on photography as a main career – just as a side hobby. At the moment I’ve been using the volunteer models for our district’s ROP fashion merch. program, though your craiglist suggestion is a great idea that I’ll be sure to like into!
