This semester has been a tough one as always, but worth it. I am enrolled in an all intensive Advanced Web Design class, which I have already created work that I am proud of. My favorite class this semester (as usual) is the Studio course. I am also taking Business of Photography, and I think I am learning a Lot I had never even thought about before. It will be good for me learn.
This summer I have decided I want to stay here in Michigan and try to take a stab at possibly renting out one of the studio's myself and getting a better handle on lighting altogether. It will be an amazing opportunity to have access to my own personal studio 24/7, not to mention being able to shoot in studio when clients ask. My issue is finding the clients, how do you go about doing that as a starting photographer? So many questions I hope to soon get answers for. I wish every BFA program in all colleges will implement a Business course for their students, as well as a marketing and communications course for their major. It would be so helpful to learn.
That is what internships and real world experience is for though, right? That is something else I will hopefully be doing this summer. I am praying that God leads me to the right photographer that I can intern under this summer, possibly one in Chicago. But not only that, I need a source of income - a job, or jobs. So I am really praying He can help me. Whatever happens this summer, I pray that it will be for the better, and it will be experience gained (even if it is just learning how to find an apartment and pay bills). An experience I have not yet had before.
Here is some of my work from this semester:
And lastly here is the parallax scrolling website I designed for my Web Design midterm. There are still some flaws I did not get time to work out. It is really meant for large viewing on big screens and fast internet access. But please do check it out!
