Readymades


A series based off of the Dadaist movement involving readymades and simple constructs. I build a simple monument, document it, then break it apart. While taking the image, I make sure to include the physical space the construct is in. By doing this, I not only document the construct I've made, but also give the images a sense of time and place. Shot with a Pentax Asahi 6x7 Fuji 160c

The Glamorous life of a photo major


A before and after of dusting images shot on Fuji 160c 120 color neg film. No edit on the image, just lots and lots of dusting. (Click for full dust effect) This image is one of 12 needed for my final project. I still have 10 more to shoot, scan, dust, edit, print, mount, and mat for critique which is 2 weeks from today. CRUNCH TIME!!!

Halli B? More like Halli G!!

Wha wha WHAT!! H Gizzo in da house!! Actually it's Halli B, and the house she's in is Yellowstone National Park. 5d Mark II 15mm fisheye

Old Faithful

Went to Yellowstone National Park to meet up with Jon Long and shoot some of the expensive cameras he had been traveling with all summer. He worked for Canon for their Canon in the Parks program and was able to shoot all over the place. This was a 5d Mark II with a 15mm fisheye. Fun day of shooting, then the Canon rep bought us beers. All in all it was worth the drive, even if it was just to go shoot Canons.

SFP high noon shoot

Today in class we took a photo walk to make sure we knew how to fiddle with our cameras. We walked around the VCB taking pictures for about 30 min, It was just about noon so the sun was very bright and it was hard to manage shadows and such. But all in all it was a good day of class.

Another JPEG from our lava lake hike. I've been trying to edit this image for 2 weeks now. Just want to see how it looks up on my page. Never going to shoot in JPEG again -JS

Grass

I hate shooting JPEG. Just by trying to edit this image in PS I have decided to shoot everything in Raw, like your supposed to. I should start listening to people more. -JS

Alright, so I've been working a lot at the hotel so i haven't been shooting all that much. But it gives me plenty of time to find sweet videos on the internet. Hopefully i'll put some of my work on here soon, but till then here's another sick flick made with still images.

Sac Peak X process





Just figured out the cross process curves in photoshop. The first and last image is Sacagawea Peak outside of Bozeman MT. The middle is an image of a field of flowers above Fraser lake in the bridgers. All were shot at an ISO of 2500 (accident) but i think the grain helped these 3 images to get that film feel. JS

Holy Cow



I am a proud owner of a new 18-200 Nikkor lens. Took it for a test drive and found some cows. I was very pleased with how it handled! It is very versatile and it focuses about twice as fast as my other lenses did. Anywho, this is one of my better images from the set. JS

Sypes to the M trail looking over Bozeman MT.  I have done nothing to this shot because i don't know how to use photoshop at all, also I just got a new computer and i have no idea what i'm doing on it's little photo editor thing.  Just one of those images that as i look at it i see little things i could have done differently but overall i think it's a dynamic and interesting shot.  I most likely will go back in with photoshop when i learn what i can do with the image. Any tips or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!     JS
