Examples

Hi there. Since I talked a little bit about digital props and backgrounds in my last post, I thought I might show some examples. The first is a before and after example of a digital background. The first image was taken in front of a green screen and then the subject was placed in front of a more decorative backdrop. The next example is of my youngest daughter. The basket that she is sitting in is a digital prop. She was actually sitting on the floor in front of a white backdrop. Lastly,is the image with the two children looking at the fish. They were actually looking at an empty bowl with water. The fish I added as a digital prop in editing. Hope you enjoy!

A little about myself

Hello fellow blogger's. I wanted to take some time to tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Monica and I currently reside in Northern Indiana. My professional background is in customer service and I recently graduated with a BA in Visual Communications from the University of Phoenix online. With the information I learned from school I have the ability to create graphic work as well as design websites. I love being creative and spend most of my days working on the computer. I know this might sound "geeky" but I really enjoy what I do. I recently found a new love for photography. I think what makes my style a little bit different is that I use digital props and backgrounds within my photos. These are backgrounds that are on the computer that I would place a subject in during editing. I use this style mainly because I don't have the space to house dozens of photography backdrops and this method gives me access to so many different options. I also do traditional style photography and love coming up with new ways to be creative in the studio.I am just getting started and cannot wait to see where this road takes me.

Personally, I am a mother and a wife. I am very active at my church and in my spare time I love going out to eat at nice restaurants. I think that with my customer service background I have learned the importance of treating people respectfully and professionally.

Thank you for taking the time to read about me. I hope I didn't bore you to much! More to come as I get use to this whole blogging thing....

Thanks for reading!
