ANYWAY, This series was for a photographing light course. Our only stipulation was that the subject had to do with light and everything had to be ambiently lit, so no studio lights. I was wanting to show how metering for different skin tones in turn changes the surrounding area's tone. I took two separate photos at proper meterings, then stitched them together to form one photo. No photo shop was used outside of basic color correction and the stitching of the photos together. There is a large artist statement about racial perception, but I think it would be quite lengthy to put on here, so just ask if you want to read it and I can email a copy to you.
Also also, a big thanks to all of my models, in order (David Ogunjobi, Margaret Loehnig, Dipesh Niraula, Jenny True, Samah Hassan, Patrick Gross, Hazar Khidir, Reina Koyano, Alexus Wong, Mikey Sistek, Hannah Pey, Jun Kwon, Hiroki Shibuya, Rocio Hopson, Marc Polaski, Alexis Morris, Yazan... (I know it's not Smith, but you never gave me your real last name), Hannah Pey (again, but bald this time), Nifemi Adio, Albert McCorrmick, Jenn Fank, and Duong Dinh)
If any of the models want to use the photo you are in (like printing it out, putting it on Facebook) feel free to, but I would appreciate it if you would credit me when putting it on any social media websites.
