Emma Gehlbach’s Photo Portfolio

A string of red Christmas lights in the newsroom was all that was needed to create this photo. Originally, the colors looked harsh and unnatural, but a black-and-white filter fixed that.

I was really excited to start the photo unit. Though I wouldn’t consider myself artistically talented, I can appreciate a good piece of art. However, this project was harder than I anticipated. I had trouble finding time to take pictures and it was difficult to find good things to actually take pictures of. Despite the difficulties, I pulled through eventually, and I’m really happy with how most of my pictures turned out. I especially like my freeform pictures, but I found it hard to cover the junior high SEIBA honor band concert because I was seated so far away from the stage. All in all, I’m satisfied with how my pictures turned out and I can honestly say I learned a lot when doing this project.
