Final Ideas

1. Look back at your very first blog post where you shared 5 things or people that inspire you.  Have your sources of inspiration changed or stayed the same? What new creative resources have you discovered over the course of the school year?
My inspiration has very much been similar to what it was in the beginning of the year. However, I have been progressively more prone to opening my mind to photos I may not have liked in the beginning of the year. My inspiration has been opened up because of my exposure to many new unique photos anyone would see in their everyday life. 
 
2. What three things are you most passionate about?  
 1. music
 2. learning
 3. nature

3. How can you carry your inspirations and passion into your photography?
 My next photo project could be something involving music. Im not sure how that would work but it sounds interesting. 

4. What have you learned about the evolution of an idea over the course of the school year?
 At first you really think that you know what your doing. But then, your idea can change quickly and dramatically due to circumstance or new ideas to add on. Furthermore, the molding of a more refined idea is important rather than just a general idea. 

5. What have you learned about the creative process over the course of the school year?
 The creative process is more of a hit or miss. Looking at a photo you can really tell how much effort and creativity it required. This made me force myself to try really hard to get good pics.

6. What assignments did you enjoy the most? Why did you enjoy them?
I liked the portraits the most because it was good to interact with the model and it was fun to find places to go and take pics for each project.

Tell a Story

1.  In the world that surrounds you what do you observe during the day that may tell a story?

There are countless things around everyday that tell a story. Every person has there own story, and knowing that alone is very fascinating. Each person returns to their home every night, lives their own life, and has their own job. They have their own friends and family. Each person in this world has their story and by taking a picture of them, it opens up a magnitude of possible stories.
2.  How would you prepare yourself as a photographer to create images that tell a story?

Picking images that tell a story is a very tough task. Focusing on images that provide alternate, underlying meanings, helps bring to the surface all the possibilities of the story. Finding interesting people or objects will help show everything that that things has to offer, through one picture. 
3.  Describe three memories that you wish had been photographed by a documentary photographer.

My trip to Trinidad & Tobago, because of all the really cool things we saw and did. Also, my first steps because that is a cool thing in our lives that only happens once, which is rarely captured on camera. Lastly, my second Christmas, because seeing my reactions would be very funny.

4.  Bring in an image from your childhood or family album that tells a story to share with the class.
