These are images of my Photography 2 class at International Academy of Design and Technology in Nashville. 

img_0221 They are shooting images of objects in their hands, but directing their shoot while also holding their own object. 

img_0223 Communication is key here, because they first have to explain their vision for their image to the person working the camera and adjusting the lighting, and then they have to be able to explain how to change something, and also why they want it changed. 

img_0237  I found it interesting some of the contorted positions they ended up in trying to get the lighting and angles “just right.”

Notice Matt using his shirt to cover his face in order to create the dark low-key background he needed behind his hands.  icon_smile

Danielle realized the light stand wasn’t going to get low enough, so she decided to hold it instead.  Way to innovate guys!

Kathleen is here shooting for Stephanie.  They review the images to make sure what they are getting in camera is what they had in mind.

Good job guys!
