Last Sunday, I decided to squeeze in a rushed photo shoot before church, so I only came away with three photos I liked well enough. I decided to submit a fourth photo to hear suggestions on how ya’ll might have framed the photo. My hope was to catch the pumpkin in the reflection, but because of my time restriction, I couldn’t figure out where to…[Read more]

I enjoyed thinking about this project and semi preparing for it. I decided to try to illustrate Matthew 4:4 with the theme of bread. I tried to get it looking as 1st century as I knew how. The bread is a recipe I found called focaccia bread which originated around the 5th or 6th century A. D. . It’s not the 1st century, but its kind of close. :)…[Read more]

It was in the morning, and I had a hard time with deep shadows and glaring sun. Do you have any tips with how to deal with sharp/deep shadows outdoors?

I didn’t realize these hadn’t uploaded in the other post.

We had a baby grand piano at home so I moved some furniture and took a shot at it. I had a hard time with the lighting though. The light from the window was not very good, also the lamps and the flash were making bad reflections on the piano. I enjoyed trying anyway!

Here are my submissions. I read the words to the hymn and tried to look for metaphors. I saw mostly clouds and then at the end it mentioned waves and wind.
