Spotlight

I took these picture in a pitch black barn using a spotlight as my light source with these horses. With this first picture the ISO was at 800, the shutter speed 1/60, and the aperture was at 3.5. In photoshop all I did with the top one was get rid of the lead rope in the picture and made the ground black because the spotlight made it light up just a little. On the second image, the ISO was at 1600 and then all the information was the same as the first one. In photoshop I started out just getting rid of everything except for the horses head because with her body in the picture it made her head look too big and it didn't look proportional. So after I got rid of the body, I found another picture of her body that worked better for the picture, I added that picture in and distorted it to make it proportional with her head, then I used the gradient filter over the body to fade it out just a little bit.

Holiday Shoot

This picture I took during Christmas time for a holiday photoshoot. I took it at ISO 1600, with a shutter speed of 1/100, and the aperture was at 2.8. In photoshop I made the gold ornament a little brighter and got rid of some glares. I also blurred out the red sparkly ornaments and the snow to make the gold ornament the only thing in focus.

Wedding Bouquet

This is a photoshoot that we did with a few wedding dresses and bouquets that were given to us by a local florist. This picture was taken with an ISO of 400, the shutter speed was 1/20, and the aperture was at 8.0. In photoshop, I just did things to draw more attention to the flowers rather than the dress. The first thing I did was blur the buttons on the dress, then I made the dress darker using the burn tool and dodged the flowers to make them a little brighter.

Cheyenne in the Pasture

This picture I took with the ISO at 100, the shutter speed at 1/320, and the aperature was at 4.5. In photoshop, I just did some dodging and burning on the horses face and body. I also had to remove some distracting things with the stamp tool.

Character Card

This was a picture that I took for a school play that was going on at our school, it was called The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940. The character I took a picture of was Nikki. The first thing that I did to this picture was make it look more like a painting, to do that I used the oil painting feature in photoshop. For this picture we were given a template in photoshop, which included another character's far in the inside, with no words or anything. So I started with adding Nikki's picture to the inside of the oval, then added the banner and matched the color with the background and added her name to it with the font we were provided and had to download. Then we added the name of the play, with another font we were given, to the top and then had to mask that to make sure that her head was in front of the text

Black Light

On this picture we used a black light and we waited the models using black light paint. For this picture the ISO was at 5000, the shutter speed was at 1/60, and the aperture was at 1.8. In camera raw, I turned down the highlights to bring out more details in their shirts. In photoshop, I just cleaned up the paint and made the lines straighter.
