Angela Harden's Proposal

The purpose of enrolling in Photography 2 is to end the semester with a 20 print portfolio ready for submission to the Tisch Program at New York University. I intend to complete a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts then work in the field of photography.
From January to May 2008 I want to further develop as a photographer by; conducting night shots, expanding my knowledge of filter use for the camera as well as in the darkroom, and experiment with using a flash.
My work, thus far, has been greatly influenced by my move from New York City to Texas. I expect that my work will continue to reflect my Texan surroundings and that I will be further influenced from exposure to more photography at Houston Center for Photography, where I am an intern.
For my portfolio I plan to include photographs from three different cameras. I will be using a Nikon N70 SLR, a Yashica Mat EM TLR, and for one print I will be using a polaroid camera.
In order to demonstrate my ability as a photographer my subjects are going to vary throughout the semester. I plan to photograph landscapes, portraits, and any subject that I find artistically appealing. In my portfolio I am also going to include one hand colored photograph.
My main goal is to further educate myself and bring my photography to a higher level.

I plan to photograph landscapes, portraits, and any subject that I find artistically appealing. In my portfolio I am also going to include one hand colored photograph. My intention is to photograph subjects that are not typically considered interesting or beautiful and by doing so turning them into art and provoking my audiences thoughts. When I approach a subject I never move or set up what I see. I want my audience to view the image just as I did. I will in turn move myself around as long as I do not alter anything from my original finding. In doing this I hope to provoke truth and curiosity.
