Humans of LBCC

"I work at the bookstore here at Linn Benton and I really enjoy doing that. I am a stocker and an assistant to the buyer here. I also pick up deliveries and make sure everything is clean. As far as candy in the bookstore, I would suggest the king sized recess to anybody because there is three in one. It's a great deal!"

"I really enjoy hunting. That's actually one of my favorite things to do. And then as soon as we get some snow I really enjoy snowboarding, so I plan to spend a whole lot of time on the mountain this winter. As cliche as it is, when it's raining I enjoy hanging out with friends, watching movies, and eating mass quantities of popcorn."

The above photo of Joey Peterson who finished first place in the 4A boys cross country state championship is probably my favorite photo that I took this term. I really like how the background clearly shows that it is a meet with the crowd and the other runners but they don't take away from the main subject. The main runner's whole body is in the frame and both of his feet are off the ground so I did a good job of freezing the action which was the main goal of the assignment. It reflects what I learned in photojournalism by his expression. A huge part of good photojournalism photos is the expression of the subject. Not only does the main subject have a good facial expression but you can tell the other boys do to. It is also a good example of how to crop a photo for the paper because that is also super important. There is no clutter! And lastly, the main thing that I learned this term is that good photojournalism tells a story and I think this photo does that. I think the m...

Photographer of the Week

I chose to research photographer Lee Jeffries for this assignment. The reason I chose Lee Jeffries is because his photos really caught my eye. They are so distinctly his work and I think that is really cool for a photographer to have. His "claim to fame" is photographing black and white images of homeless people all around the world. My favorite picture of Jeffries is the one below. This photo, like many of Jeffries work shows so much emotion. This one is a little different because most of them focus on the subjects eyes but I really like how this one shows so much emotion without even needing to see the eyes. This photo is actually of a homeless sex worker without the wig she usually wears.   Photo taken from DailyMail.com https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2608543/Photographer-Lee-Jeffries-uncovers-haunting-human-face-drug-addiction-homelessness-poverty.html Lee Jeffries got the idea of photographing homeless people when he came across a young homeless gi...

Lynsey Addario "It's What I Do" Book Report

“Photography has shaped the way I look at the world; it has taught me to look beyond myself and capture the world outside.” This is by far my favorite quote from the book “It’s What I Do” by Lynsey Addario. It immediately stood out to me because this is the way I strive to view photography. To see the beauty in everything, and not just the surface level. This is what Lynsey Addario does throughout the entire book. She has written a story of how the relentless pursuit of truth, in virtually every major theater of war in the 21st century has shaped her life. Each and every one of Addario’s photographs are captivating in their own way. I would say the main thing that separates Addario’s photos from other photographers are the stories they tell. She has a gift of seeing people and capturing them in her photos. A good example of this is on page 192 of Bibiane, a twenty-eight year old from South Kivu. The only physical indicator of her pain is her tears, but Addario makes it so much deeper....
