Jessica Maxwell



"Art, not beauty, is in the eye of the onlooker, behold it!" Jessica Maxwell

What I learned:

I learned way too much to begin to write it in one page, much less in one class period. The most useful thing I learned was how to take a simple object and capture its beauty and then print it "just right" so that its beauty is defined. It was really exciting to see how a few more seconds of exposure can change an image, but more exciting when you end up with the perfect image.

What I plan to do with what I've learned:

I plan on working more with moving objects and experimenting with the bulb setting.

My great struggle is capturing the image that I see in my mind. Fortunately, I'm not a quitter and I will never stop trying!

I haven't, in my 23 years of life, settled on one specific goal. If I had to choose a goal pertaining to photography, I guess it would be to never stop experimenting with images, and always to keep an intriguing though playful quality or style to my photographs.
