HRD Photo

At College Park, I took three photos, one regular, one over exposed, and one under exposed.  Then in Lightroom I used to HDR Software to stitch the three together and create a perfect image. 

City Life

Each picture was taken in Berkeley, California.  Each picture was edited in Lightroom and has a black and white filter; some with vignette. 

Surrealism

In Photoshop, I layered these two photographs and turned down the opacity so you could see the house in the field with the tree. Then converted to black and white in Lightroom.

In Photoshop, I cut out the eyes of another picture and placed them on the balloons. Then converted to cyanotype vignette in Lightroom.

Studio Project 1

Model: Alex Koot

Lightroom: On every picture, the contrast and brightness was shot up so the back drop is vibrant. But that caused a white and too bright of a face. Then the brush tool was used to darken the face back. Clarity went all the way down to smooth the face, contrast was pushed down also to take the over-dramatic highlights off of the face, exposure and brightness were pushed down slightly so the face went back to skin color, but not too much or else it would look grainy and dark brown, and lastly, sharpness was pushed all the way up to finish it off. 

Perspective/Scale Project

 In this photo I placed the two action figures on piece of paper that looks like a track then edited the tape holding their feet down in Photoshop.

 In this photo I worked on the lighting and clarity in Bridge. 

 In this photo I adjusted the lighting and clarity in Bridge.

 In this photo I used Photoshop to cut out the apple in a completely separate photo and place it in this photo on top of the action figure's head so it look like the guy with the gun is shooting at the apple.
