It's week two at photo school. So far, I love it!

I decided over the summer that if I'm going to really pursue the photo thing... I should at least go to school for it! Yes, I already know how to take photographs - but I figure that there is ALWAYS more to learn (other than what I've taught myself). I believe that I owe it to my future clients to learn everything that I possibly can. I want my work to stand out.

I also want to be universal. I'm going to be doing things I've never done before. We're going to learn studio portraiture, commercial & fashion photography, product photography... etc etc! And, LOTS of computer tricks. I'm loving the super fast Apple computers here - I'll be ordering mine once the new OS is on the market.

The school that I'm going to is the Center for Digital Imaging Arts at Boston University. They also have classes in graphic design, film, 3d design, recording arts & web design.

This is my student ID photo. Unlike your typical DMV shot, pictures from photo school arn't that bad.... (Taken by Chris Gilmore).

Lara, Chris, & Bri Headed to a shoot! I took this picture with my back turned to them, camera over my head. I'm very proud.

Actually we were going to lunch, haha.

A picture I took today for a contrast assignment. I feel like I'm in high school again, taking pictures of RANDOM things!

We had an ice cream assignment the other day... I took this at Cabot's.

Street photography assignment. We went to Newbury Street (my idea). Don't you love my days in the classroom?

Lara, ROCKIN her boots!

Chris. He's not afraid to go up to ANYONE.

Chris again, today on a shoot. (Also not afraid to get dirty).

Me on my computer... Candid by Charlene Kim. I love it.

I took this photo on my depth of field assignment.

Here we had to add some spin to our photos... literally. Luckially a fire truck came by to act as my subject.

I leave you with this image from today... In the words of the Mother India restaurant, "Go Red Sox!"
