Book Project

My book is going to be about trying to capture the life and spirit of camp pendleton. There's so much to it that people don't even know about it because it's like a different world than the usual. It's quiet, loud, busy, and slow all at the same time. So many places are beautiful and it seems like a world away from the rest. There's a certain safety and serenity and I hope to catch all the timelessness of this base. Basically.....that's it :)

I see the focus is completely not in the right spot. Just a learning process....

Can't choose which look I like better with this pic

Book ; camp pendleton

I decided that book is going to be about camp pendleton. I went out today and just started taking pictures of things that seemed, old, odd, or just interesting to look at :)

Roni Horn

Roni Horn doesn't walk the straight and narrow regular path to art, but is experimental in her work and extremely unique. With her work, she doesn't just create art, but transforms the room with her images. She works with the rooms dimensions to create a space where her art captures the viewers attention in multiple ways. I like the way her portraits showed so much emotion and they were truly good shots that captured feeling. Besides that she's interesting and some of the work was a bit crazy at times!

Jim Bradenburg

Jim Bradenburg had a project where he only took one frame a day for 90 days. He captures the nature around him and the wildlife as some what of preservation of what he loves. He would often spend hours out in the woods, water, etc to get these pictures. Photography is his talent in so many ways and he shares his talent to save the wildness around him for himself and others by displaying his images in a national geographic magazine. In this video you could see the passion that he had to be able to sit and wait for the wolves to come around and the respect that he had for the wilderness and the viewers when he took special care, while photographing the deer that had been killed. His work inspires you to capture the beauty around you and not feel as though the beauty of the world is far off, but may be right in your backyard!
