As a student feeling like I’ve barely even begun my studies in Photo Communications, I’m not entirely sure what my process as a photographer is yet, or what sorts of perspectives or subjects I gravitate towards. I’m certain of a few things, such as having minimal content in images, and the usage of natural light. But other then that, when I go out to photograph for different occasions, it’s never really with an intent or plan. So that’s how I went about this project. The first time, I wasn’t very pleased with the results. They felt too stereotypical of what anyone could take on South Congress. Having already had several shooting assignments on there in the pass, I was already bored with the subject matter anyway. So the second time around, I went about shooting keeping in mind that I didn’t really want my images to reflect South Congress as a whole. As a result, my images came out very detailed. I also found myself gravitating towards striking colors, and that is ultimately how I created a sort of cohesion throughout my images. Using vibrant colors, that either compliment or contrast each other.
