My name is Matt Wiig and I usually go by Matt. I am originally from Southport, Connecticut, but I recently moved to Plymouth, Massachusetts. Even though I mainly live in Plymouth, I would say that home is always going to be southwestern Connecticut. My by far favorite things to do in my free time are to play hockey, build and create things, and sail. I've always been super interested in Photography but I haven't been ever able to afford a camera besides the one on my phone. One thing I love about Tabor Academy is the vast amount of electives that are offered here. The one reason why I took Photo is because I've always loved photography and the use of older technology like film. I really love taking pictures of nature and other things like sports but I have never had the proper camera to do so. Unfortunately, I can't afford to buy a decent camera but I've always wanted to get one. I'm really excited to take my first photo class because I feel like I know a dece...

My name is Gunnar. I am from West Hartford, CT which I would also affectionately refer to as home. One of my favorite things to do in my free time is to listen to music and drive around with friends. I like this because it is something that I find relaxing. I chose photography because I have always had an interest in video editing so I figured I would like photography as well. My camera at home is a Nikon p510. In the past, I have not taken a photography class simply because it was not offered. Photography to me is an art because it can tell a story without using words. My favorite artist is Kevin Parker, also known as the band Tame Impala.

The most important thing I think to learn in this class is the different applications of photography. The most important photograph is probably a photo of my dad on what used to be our boat "the Dara Lee". The reason I deem this picture important to me is that my dad was showing pure happiness when smiling for the camera and it was all because of the hard work that he put in to reach that point in his life.

Hi, my name is Kiley Smith and I am originally from Fort Collins, Colorado, but currently my home is located in Marion, MA. In my free time I like to play a lot of ice hockey and or workout. I prefer to stay in shape and eat healthy in order to perform to my capabilities. I chose Photography because I have always found an interest in taking photos wherever I am, regardless if I use them for social media purposes or not, I have always found myself taking numerous amounts of pictures. I have a GoPro Hero 5 Black camera that I use to take pictures and videos almost anywhere, on the ice, or in the mountains, etc. I have taken a digital photography class at my past school and I loved every second of it with all the camera techniques I learned just to use on my phone. I look forward to learning more in my photography class this year. I do believe photography can be an art and it takes many different forms as photography is a very broad title for many little techniques and styles within. Cur...

I am Grace Martin and I go by Grace. I am from Marblehead, MA however, home for me is Cape Cod, as I have spent a lot of time during the summer and is where I am happiest. Since I grew up close to the water and spending ample time outdoors, I love to do anything outside or on the water, whether it be running, skiing, rowing or laying on the beach. I choose photography because I want to learn how to better capture my surroundings and experiences and I appreciate looking at photography and how people played with their environment. Beside my phone, I don't have a camera. I have not been in a photography class before because because nobody like the photo teacher at my old school and since coming to tabor, I have not had the time. I think photography is absolutely an art, as you can apply the principles and elements to create a well thought out composition. My favorite artist at the moment is Noah Kahan, because his songs are raw and meaningful, and he portrays his emotions through his...

My name is Jada Trench. I am from Boston, Massachusetts but during the school year, I live at Tabor Academy in Lillard South East Dormitory. I feel most at home in the city of Boston or big cities similar to Boston and New York. My favorite thing to do during my free time is shopping, online or physically. I like to shop because I like putting together outfits and re-decorating my closet space with new items frequently. I like to take pictures but I don't own my own camera yet or taken a photo class. I have always wanted to take a photo class but I didn't familiarize my self with the art class options last year. It wasn't until the third trimester of last year did I realize Tabor offered Photography class. Photography is an art because great photographers are doing more than taking a snapshot of random scenery or such. It has compositions and details just like oil pastels and paintings. Three of my favorite musicians are Frank Ocean, Khalid, and Russ who all have a similar...

My name is Maya. I'm from Rochester Massachusetts. Home for me is my house in Rochester. In my free time I like to relax and listen to music or spend time with my friends doing fun things. I chose to do photography because I have never taken a photo class before and it seemed interesting and very different from the other classes i'm taking. I do not own an actual camera besides the one on my phone. Photography is art in my opinion because you get to create the picture by choosing the angle and subject. Photography can be creative or whatever you want it to be. My favorite artist is Matthew Smith because I really like pictures of nature especially ocean life.

The most important thing to learn in class is to be open to learning new things and putting your best effort into it. My most important photograph is a picture of my whole entire family at my parent's wedding because it was a very happy day for my parents and everyone was there to spend it with them.

My name is Andrew Dunn and you can just call me Andrew. I am from Marion and home to me is being on the water, specifically Buzzards Bay. My favorite thing to do in my free time is to go boating or fishing in Buzzards Bay because I love just being on the water and I have been fishing for most of my childhood. With all the other electives offered throughout tabor, I chose photography because my mother always has had a photography camera with all sorts of buttons and gadgets attached to it and it has been a recurring thought on what those buttons mean, and now I can finally figure out what they mean. I do not have my own camera, but I want one. I have never taken a photography class because I have never even heard of there being photography classes and I was never exposed to photography classes at my previous school. I think photography can be art because you can take a photo and manipulate it in your own creative way. My favorite artist currently is Florida Georgia Line. The most important pho...

that is maddy´s end version , so again left is the negative, in the middle the test strip and on the right side is the positive. These pictures are all after the developing and drying.
that is emeili´s motion picture. on the left side it is the negative picture, in the middle you can see the strip test and on the right side is the end version, so the positive.

that is the final version of my motion photo after the developing and the dryer, so the positive ( 2 seconds) .
that is the test strip of the motion photo. You can see the different seconds (-> getting darker). i took 2 seconds becasue it is not too dark or too light. the two seconds is the second strip od the left side.

this picture is the first version of my motion picture. the developing is exactly the same like the developing from the normal pictures without motion. the only difference is when you take the picture ( we took the picture at a different location than the pictures before), you have to divide your ...

Contact sheet is used so that the photographer can see a small view of what each picture will look like in its positive form. This allows them to pic what image they would most want to enlarge.

Test strips are used so that the photographer can see how much light is needed in order to properly expose the specific image that they are enlarging

After selecting the most desirable exposure from the test strip, the photographer then repeats the enlarging process with the entire image under one exposure time, therefore creating the full sized final image.
