Food Photgraphy.

Pecan-caramel cinnamon bun

Chocolate chip cookies

Creme Brulee

Chocolate ice cream with pirouline

S'mores

Nutella and banana sandwich

All of these photos were taken on a simple white countertop, and I used paper towels to blend the background in with the plates. I only used a dampened light source along with sunlight, using a white sheet of paper to soften the illumination. At first, I was worried that some of the photos would look overexposed, but then I realized that the intensity of the light only added to the appeal of the foods. All foods are in their natural state, and were not altered in any ways artificially, meaning they were safe to consume after the shoot. I tried to make the food look as appetizing as possible, and I truly enjoyed photographing my favorite desserts. My favorite, of course, was the ice cream photo, because I love the great detail in the scoop, and the lighting and focus seems perfect.

Become Someone Else.

These photos are from a campaign to "Become Someone Else", and it was created by the Lithuanian Agency called Love for Mint Vinetu. They stated that, "When one reads books, he/she starts living it and identifies (or not) with main hero." So these photos actually encourage people to try and have different personalities, and fully dwell into what they read.

'Ladies Man', S. Ray 2011

For this photo, I used a spray deoderant can and showed the "after-effects" of smelling good. I love the lighting in this picture, since every face is lit, and i believe that it is a little humorous and makes the veiwer laugh a bit.


'Swag.', S. Ray 2011

This photo shows the influence of music on a person. It shows how someone can be inspired just by a simple song, and it holds a very deep meaning to me. My life revolves around music, so this is my personal favorite.



'Tae Kwon Do Skills', S. Ray 2011

This photo was a humorous one, showing the adverse effects of people that try playing around with Tae Kwon Do weapons. I myself am a black belt, and I have never had this happen to me, but I have seen it happen, and it is always hilarious.
