Introduction to Digital Photography 101

Kyle BurkeTwo Boys in Torino

I had been walking in Torino that day focused on

taking portraits of those people who stood out. A

man in a purple velvet suit jacket, a mime taking

a break from work, an old man taking a picture of

his granddaughter on a cellular phone. I saw a

young boy squatting outside of a church, lowering

himself from the surrounding parental chit-chat

and boredom at eye level. His eyes fixated on

nothingness, his mind in a another place. As I

bent to take the picture his brother looked over in

sheer curiosity, but that isn't this shot. By the time

I had snapped for a second time, his older brother

stood dumbfounded while the boy looked up with

pure indifference. They no longer stood out, it ap-

pears they fit right in.

My work depicts the stages of life. Beginning with

a child we see young people, people in an age

where they seem to have no time to seize the day,

and ending with an old man who is full of energy

and youth, with open eyes he looks as curious

and open as a child.

Introduction to Photojournalism

Taylor HammerlUntitled

My photos represent the irony behind the process

of transforming our appearances into something

beautiful. The process itself completely distorts

who we are to begin with. We pull our faces, we

layer on make up, and make ourselves suffer in

hopes of creating something that changes us for

the better.

Landscape Architectural Photography

Olivia HeffermanUntitled

This photo represents the beginning of my Flo-

rence study abroad journey. The window signifies

the closing of a chapter of a part of my life as well

as the beginning of a new one. The darkness in

the foreground is representative of leaving behind

my old life and the light through the window signi-

fies the many new prospects of this new journey

that lie ahead. In addition, it represents the new

lens through which this experience will allow me

to look at the world. Although the journey's end is

unknown, the adventures along the way are

bound to be full of excitement and fulfillment.

Friday's Child is a video portrait of my Icelandic friend, Gudmunder Hilmar, who is currently liv-

ing in Florence. I shot the video on the banks of the Arno and set it to music by Lee Hazle-

wood, which seemed appropriate to the subject. I shot this video thinking about video as

photography, ie. moving pictures.
