Annie & Tahm

This is a couples shoot I did over spring break in California. This is my good friend Annie and her sweet boy Tahm. They go together like peas and carrots.

me, 12 times

my latest self portrait.





I feel like all the self portraits I've taken are super quiet and moody. Although its the kind of imagery I like to create, the real me is a goofball. I'm thinking its a pretty fitting selfi :)

moments in March

...cheesy title yes I know.
So a few weeks ago we had 6 more pictures due for our Phase 3 assignment. But this time, we were allowed to do whatever we want. For me, I was thrilled about it. I felt more imaginative and creative than ever. Plus it was nice to go out and shoot outside. Not only did I model 10 times for people. but I got 3 more shots done than I was suppose to... Yes, I am a bad@$$!

Here are the images I submitted for the assignment:

always a challenge to photograph, but they all so stinkin cute!

Phase 3 assignment

This post is about 2 weeks too late! Here are some of my phase 3 assignments. They're kindof random because the assigments were all over the place. But I'm greateful for that challenge. Here we have a high key, low key, executive, outdoor portrait, advertisement and glass shot. I'm no where near content with my work- but this phase taught me a lot. We weren't allowed to use any Hallmark students so I was forced to go out and ask people in my community to model. Each expierence was a great one. I hope you like:

here to stay..

..or at least for now.

I haven't blogged much lately. Probably because; (a.) I've been thinking a lot about switching to a different blog site or starting completely fresh. (b.) I've been thinking a lot about branding myself and I think my most current posts contradict the direction I want to go in. (c.) school is kicking my ass. and (d.) to be honest, most of the photographs I've uploaded here arn't ones I'm necessarily proud of. BUT, I think they show growth and one day, I'll look back at all my posts and remember how great the expierence was or be very excited for how much I've learned.

So, as of now, I am staying here at this blog. In the next few weeks I will be starting up kellyboitano.com (which I'm SO excited about).

I hope you are having a lovely weekend :)
