final projecto

Olivia Barrientos photos:

my edits:

A lot of things are the same with these photos, I wanted to keep the edit simple because they are simple photos. I increased the contrast and lowered the brightness, i also applied a screen layer.

For the last two pictures i applied a warming filter for the candle and a cooling filter for the last photo. I also used the burn tool to darken some areas and vignette both of the last two. I liked Olivia's photos because the motorcycle is cool, the candle makes a cool reflection on the wood table and the last photo has really sick lights. I thing the change in contrast made the motorcycle cooler. the edit i put on the candle made the composition better and brought out the wood grain. for the last photo i think the cooling filter gave it more of the vibe it needed making it more eerie and enhancing the composition.

email artist statement

My name is Weslee Rogman and I am a life enthusiast. My biggest passions in my life mostly consist of different art forms. I find the most fulfillment in making music, creating paintings, and photography. When I take my photos I try to capture moments in my life through my imagination making my photography style unique. I picked up photography about a year ago and I have learned and grown immensely in my life and in my photography. My goals are to continue to progress at the rate I have and to be able to capture exactly what’s going through my head in everyday life. If I do so I think I can achieve my ultimate goal and that’s to get payed to illustrate my life. I picked up photography because I’ve always been naturally artistic and it’s an excellent and efficient way to capture the life that I live. I think my best image is the last one in my portfolio. I had the idea with these moving lasers I had and I decided to take a long exposure shot of the lasers on my friends face and shirt. It’s the best one because it turned out exactly how I pictured in my head without any edits.

three photographers

I chose this photographer because he is one of my biggest inspirations for photography. He is a photojournalist for national geographic, which is my dream job.

Jimmy Chin is also a National Geographic photographer, I chose him because he rock climbs and gets some sick shots.
