This photograph is of a bouquet of flowers that I manipulated into a mandala using Photopea. Essentially, I used a photograph of mine of flowers, duplicated it and created this piece. I especially love the drama and the lighting on the flowers and the contrast of the black background. I hope you enjoy it too!

This photograph is of my sister sewing some clothes from the hands as portraiture project. I took the photo with a black and white filter. What I really enjoy about this photograph is the contrast of the white and black, and it gives it a really dramatic feel to it. Sewing is one of her favorite hobbies :)

This photograph is of a street in Downtown Vista, which I took to show the beauty of Vista. I manipulated it by adjusting the lighting in the Photos app. I love how I was able to convert the original dull picture into something completely different, full of life.

This photograph is of me looking up in the sky. I manipulated it by editing the background and making a bunch of colors pop out. I had also used the Procreate app to put layers over each other to create this wonderful picture. I also used PicsArt by putting filters and making it very artistic. You can see a story line with my work. It's one of my best art pieces and I won an award for this from the Congressional Art Awards. It says a lot about me. I really enjoy it so much and many other people do too.

This photograph is of me and my car. I chose this photo because it is an accurate representation of me and a place that I go to a lot. I took the original photo of me crouching down then another photo of me standing in front of the car and overplayed the photos then changed the opacity. I love this photo mainly because it shows that I work hard to buy this car.

I chose this photo because it represents me pretty well I think. I love the magical feeling to it and the sunset gives it a calmer tone. A lot of things in life make me get that feeling of "Butterflies" in my stomach, so i thought I'd use the butterflies in this to represent that. I love this photo personally because I think it's one of my best.

This photograph is of some palms at the beach in Oceanside, which I took it because it look really pretty. I just added a filter of black and white to make it look more unique. I really like this picture because it looks like it is very cloudy but its not, and the palms make it look more cooler. I really like how it turned out even thought I just added a filter to it.

This photograph is of one of my friends when we went to watch the sunset together at Carlsbad State Beach. I manipulated it by putting a black and white filter over the photo to accentuate her silhouette using Snapseed in an attempt to create a subtle yet emotional appeal to viewers. What I especially admire about this photograph is how it isn't set up nor is the setting or subject propped a certain way; it's a raw moment that I was able to capture that holds a lot of sentimental memories.

I feel like this is one of the best  photographs I've taken so far. It sends out a powerful message especially during these hard times. People should look into getting vaccinated because it benefits themselves and others around them. They are being Covid Safe and will stop the spread. My friends in the back are fully vaccinated and now that businesses are opened up again they are allowed in with no face mask required. My  friends in black and white have not gotten their vaccine shots so they are trapped in their face mask. They won't feel the same freedom as the people who are vaccinated. When I created this picture I had to take two different pictures. The first picture was the one where my friends are fist bumping each other. Then the other was when I had my other friends (with the face mask) step in and sit down, while took the picture. I put a black and white filter when there was four of them and cropped out my friends (wearing the face mask) into the first picture I took.

This is one of the pictures we took for Spooky photography and it has to be one of my favorite ones all year long. I originally took a few pictures of my brother (in the dark and he has a little flashlight under the blanket) , where he's looking straight ahead and then where he's looking into the mirror. I used the one of him looking straight ahead as the base picture and then did a double exposure and put the picture of him looking into the mirror on top of it. I didn't want to completely edit the first reflection out so I kept the opacity in the middle to give it a little ghostly effect. I really like it because I enjoy Halloween and I thought it was just a fun project and that I did a decent job at making it look ghostly.

# data[].attributes.body
This photograph is one of the best ones I have taken so far. I chose this photo because it represents how the vaccine can make an impact on those around you, especially family. I love seeing this photo because it puts a smile on my face seeing that my family is together and vaccinated. I manipulated it by using snap seed to make the lighting on the photo stand out and putting in the words. I took this photo at my home, with my family representing how important the vaccine is and being around those who have been there for you. I just really love this photo because I can look back at it and see how the vaccine impacted my family by being together and being safe and for me family is important no matter what.

One night I decided to capture this gorgeous sunset in the desert while I was in my family’s trailer, for the Artist as Mentor project. I thought this photograph would be perfect for my project because my artist took vivid pictures, especially sunset ones. I like this photograph because sunsets are my favorite and they always put a smile on my face when I see one. So, I thought I definitely should choose this photo to add to this gallery!

This photograph is from the Elements and Principles of Art Project. I used a black and white filter to capture the brightness of the flower, I also turned up the contrast of the photo to accentuate the flower.  I took this photo while I was out for a walk in my neighborhood, I saw this bright flower and it was perfectly symmetric so I thought it would be perfect for this assignment. I especially like this photo because the contract really draws your eyes to the flower.  What I also enjoy about this photo is the texture in the background of the plant. You can see the different shades of the leaves.

This photograph is from the "Vista is Beautiful" project. It's a photograph of the AVO Theater in Downtown Vista. I had added a filter to make the photo look more vintage. In the end this photo is one of my favorites, because I was able to capture something in our city that is simple yet very eye capturing.

This photograph/illustration is from the "Public Service Announcement" project. The background photo was taken at my mom's work during golden hour, and the photo inside the syringe was taken at the beach; I manipluated these photos in Photoshop and created a vector of a syringe to represent the vaccine. I like my submission for this project because it's a good representation of what I liked to do with all of my projects, being customization and photo manipulation/illustration via Photoshop. Also managed to sneak a pun in there which is always nice.

This photograph is from Artist as Mentor. I had so much fun creating this photo and using my imagination. My Artist Mentor was William Wegman who photographs weimaraner dogs. I tried it myself with my Rat Terrier mix dog, and it was the hardest thing I have ever done. I dressed up my dog, styled her in so many costumes and just took picture. In the end, the photos came out hilariously and it taught me to have fun even if nothing is going the way I imagined.

*This photo is from Artist as Mentor project. It was my favorite project and I had a lot of fun while working on it. I worked on the works of the Fashion Photographer, Richard Avedon who did fashion portraits, and seeing his work made me realize that it's really my interest so I worked really hard on it. I used myself as the model and and styled myself with doing my own makeup and also having a white background and myself as the main subject. I liked the outcome of the photos because it showed my style and creativeness through the portraits.

This photograph is from the “Vista is Beautiful '' Project. It is a photograph of me posing behind a white wall. I went around Vista Village with a friend of mine Michelle Zamora. I took pictures of the Cinepolis movie theater, a beautiful humming bird on the bottom right corner and a painting located  on the side of Crozier’s Flowers . I also took a picture of  the sign that says Vista which is located by Sonic Drive .The red flowers were just everywhere we go and I thought it really represents Vista. I took a picture of this architectural embellishment at the  Children's Paradise-Headquarters. To edit my photos I used an app called snapseed. Snapseed is a really fun and easy app to learn to make it look blended on my shirt. I decided to make the picture black and white while leaving the images of Vista colorful. This photograph shows how  Vista brings out the color in people.

This Photograph is from "Invisible Man" Project. It is a photograph of me trying to stay calm as my other half of my body is disappearing. I took a photo of my background first then I took a photo of me.Then I went on snapseed and start it to edit my photo to best I could. I enjoyed this photo since it brings about my creative skills and a bit of my emotions.

This image is from when we did the reflection in photopea project. I took this picture in Laguna Beach at dusk. I like this photo because it is not just a portrait or just a picture of a plant. It is different and unique because it is a reflection of a plant but it gives it more
character. This project was really fun to do that I had made more pictures being reflected that came out really great as well. This picture focuses of how beautiful the plant is in so many different angles.

The photo that I chose is from the Tessellation project created in Photopea. The picture seen reflected four times was taken at a beautiful temple that I go to during Lunar New Year. Seeing the bright pink flowers makes me feel nostalgic because this is the one time of the year that I can completely celebrate my culture and embrace the new year, while spending time with my family. The picture is beautiful by itself, but creating a tessellation with it led to the production of a magical piece. I really like this picture as it portrays a pathway with an opening at the end, which I perceive as an opening to the new year.

This photo is from the project Artist as Mentor. I actually really loved doing this project because it was my first project in this class using models and I was really inspired by my artist. I asked my friends to be my models and we had a photo shoot which was so much fun. My artist was Lindsay Adler, a portrait and fashion photographer. They did all their own make up and outfits while I set up the backgrounds and lights. This was also my first time using a real camera so I got to learn as I went. I edited the photos with Lightroom and PicsArt which was also slightly new to me at the time. The reason I chose this photo is because I personally thinks its the best picture from the shoot. I was messing with the camera setting and snapped this and we all loved how it looked. It gave a very euphoric vibe and I loved that about it.  (the model in this picture is my close friend, Emily Young)

This photo is from the Flat Lay project. I created this picture using color guard items and natural light from the 2 windows I have in my bedroom. I love this photo so much because the lighting of the photograph is just phenomenal and it has a clear message of what this photo is about.

This photo is from our flowers project. I took this photo in my backyard of blooming jade plant. I like this photo because of how the light hits the flowers. It was a really windy day so it was hard to take a picture while they were still. I did some light editing to make the photo a bit darker so the illuminated flowers would pop. I'm very proud of this photo.

This photo is from the surreal selfie project. I tried to depict the emotions I had, and many other students had, while going through online school and corona. I manipulated it using Pics Art and took different cut outs of myself, coloring them based on the emotions they represented. I enjoyed this project because I got to depict a message in an image and be creative with my ideas. This is my favorite photo because I love how the different colors pop and all the versions of myself are slightly transparent.

This photo is from the toy project. This photo was taken at the entrance of RBV. My photography class went out around the school with a bunch of these little army guys and we got to set them in really cool positions. The lighting looked really good because it was when day light savings was still happening and this was last period so the sun was starting to set and the place that the sun was at made it look really nice by shining on the grass and the army guy. I like this photo because I remember having fun doing this and being able to set the guy up anywhere and making it look like he was in high fields and mountains by putting him on rocks and grass and leaves.

This photograph is from the ¨Reflection in Photopea¨ project. This photo that I took was taken at the Oceanside beach. I had to follow all the steps to make it come out like this.In the end I really liked how the result of this photograph came out, because I worked on this for a while and just how the background of the main focus looks it makes it look better.

This photo is from the surreal selfie project. I took this picture in the RBV stadium one day after soccer. I used the self timer feature so that I had multiple images to choose from. When I began thinking about this project I knew I wanted to incorporate soccer as well as use the duplicate technique. Because of previous projects, I had some prior knowledge on how to layer images so I was able to use photoshop and layer myself onto the image multiple times.  I first started off by editing my primary image on my phone using PixLr and VSCO. I then transferred the image to photoshop where I edited the saturation and the soccer ball. This is my favorite photo because it encompasses my passion as well as my time at RBV. I can always look back at this picture and remember high school and soccer. I am also very lucky to have been able to learn so much about how to take pictures and the editing process after the picture is taken.

This photo is from the food photography project. I tried to get the details of the cookies to show the sugar and other details on them. I really enjoyed this project because I got to do something that I love, which is baking. This was something that I have never done before so I thought it was really good for my first time doing food photography. I did all my editing on the editing settings for IPhones and thought that I made these cookies look delicious!

This photo is from our Flower Photography project. I took this image using my friend's Nixon camera, and I love how it came out so focused and how the red pops out in the small amount of sunlight with the blurred background. I took the image in my friend's backyard who has a hobby of gardening. I thought it was a beautiful flower and am proud of how I was able to capture it's beauty well.

This photo is from the Spooky Photography project. I took this photo of my sister by a train trail that was in Civic Center Vista. I was really surprise how much I love how it came out and how fun and funny. I had fun taking photos that day with my sister. I wanted to make my idea for the Spooky project more mystery's and scary so I wanted my sister to wear a costume that we had that made sense with what I wanted. So I made my sister put it on for my spooky photos. Then for my editing I used an black and white filter. Also blurred out the background and some of the tree so it can look more spooky. I like that I blurred some of the tree because on the tree it looks like the tree has eyes looking out and I like that some of the eyes are blurred out and some aren´t.

This image is from the Vista is Beautiful project. Where I took this picture was in Downtown Vista where the Paseo Santa Fe gateway is. I like this picture specifically because of the leading line with the road going across the picture and how I wanted to show the massive changes Vista has gone through to make it even more beautiful than it was. As well as the angle of how I took it, how it is not just facing right in front of the picture but more like at an angle. Another thing I like is “The City Of Vista” text on the bottom just as a little touch.

This photo is from the Flower Photography project. I took this photograph in my front yard. What I like about this photo is that I love how vibrant and textured the flowers turned out to look like. The flowers are highly detailed and bright. These flowers are what I planted on March 15, 2020, right after going into quarantine, which makes me elated that the flowers have grown beautifully and marks the growth of myself and the whole school year.

This photograph was taken for the MOPA art contest. I photographed my friend Lacey in our dance studio with only the sun panel for light.

This photograph was taken for a project titled "Invisible Man". To create this effect of me riding on a "flying mattress". I took two separate pictures from the same spot. One with me sitting on the mattress with a glass table underneath. Another picture of the same background without the glass table and mattress. I put the two photos in Adobe Photoshop and simply edited out the table. I really like this photograph because it captures the type of imagination that I have.

This photograph is from the Holiday Card project. I used Adobe Spark and pixlr to edit it. I like this one specifically because I wanted to emulate a very striking train scene from the Polar Express(a childhood movie), and I think it came out very well. I had someone physically hold a flashlight outside of the view of the camera and shine it on the front spotlight of the toy train. Overall, the snow and lighting edits made a very cool photo that reminds me of fun holidays.

I choose this photo from the Artist as mentor project because I think it is my best work. My mentor was Jerry Uelsmann it was both fun and interesting learning about him and making photos in his style. This  is a photo of my cousin Alexia, I edited using apps such as Pixlr and PicsArt to make it appear slightly blurry and for the book page over her eyes. I titled this photo "Eyes Tell A Story" because I find eyes to be very captivating and tell the most about a person and their emotions, so I made the saying eyes tell a story literal in this photo.Overall, this was my favorite project and my favorite photo from the project.

This is a photo from the Toy Photography project that I did at the beginning of the year. I edited this photo on the camera app by just adding a filter to it and adjusting some of the setting and I really like how it turned out. This was one of my favorite projects I did this year because I loved how I got to take something that I would normally not use in photography and make it beautiful.

I chose this photo from Artist As Mentor. I was trying to find perfect lighting because I knew that color and black&white edit differently. My sister was in the room in her zoom meeting, then i looked out the window and it was perfect lighting I then told her to put her hands to the camera and look to the side and I captured this perfect image.  I absolutely love how i edited this image,  it makes the lines in the hand stand out so much, and with this project it made me experiment with different types of photographs that I have never seen before. I love black and white photographs.

I chose this photograph because I think it's my favorite one I've taken all year. I titled this photo "The Witches House" and I submitted it for the Spooky Photography assignment. I took this picture on an iPhone 12 and I made it black and white and messed with the composition and lighting. I really like the end product because I've always been a fan of spooky/haunted things and that's what this reminds me of.

This is a photograph of the Public Service Announcement where we created a visual picture about COVID-19 vaccine. This is one of my favorite photographs of this year. I took a more of a medical aspect on the project instead of taking a straight up photograph of people. I wanted to break down and go to the molecular level of the vaccine to show the process in a simple way that almost everyone could understand. My knowledge from AP Biology this year helped with the third and last slides specifically. I made the picture on Google slides but drew the pictures and made them stickers using PicsArt.

This photograph that I took is one of my absolute favorites! It's so pretty, clean & clear. The colors of the sunflower is so vibrant and the water droplets are the perfect last finished touch to this photo. I used no apps for this photo, simply just the camera roll settings from the photo. From the camera roll settings, I made the colors more vibrant and increased the sharpness of it a bit.

This photograph is from Mirrored Images. This the best picture I have taken so far. I really like how I edited the exposure and how I used natural light to take this photo. I like how bright it is- it really shows the reflections through the phone, it does not even look like a reflection from the phone, it more looks like a reflection from a lake or something. I also really like this because when I look at it, I feel like it symbolize the purpose of life, or purpose of a living things.

This photograph is from the Flowers project. It was taken in San Luis Obispo. All the editing I really did was just adding a filter and cropping it in Snapseed.

I decided to choose the photo because it has a lot of meaning to me. I decided to edit this picture like this because I feel I am like a butterfly- I like to be free, sweet, and smart. Someone once said "Happiness is like a butterfly, the more you chase it, the more it will evade you, but if you notice the other things around you, it will gently come and sit on your shoulder."  I think happiness is something we all deserve. What I am trying to say in this picture is that if we see butterflies as "happiness," we can all see that happiness is all over around us.

Lastly, I just thought it would compliment the picture itself because the people in it look happy and enjoy having each other there next to them without having to wear a mask.

This is a picture of my sister for our Photojournalism project. The meaning behind the photo is that my sister usually always goes out. But since COVID is a thing, at a point she couldn’t go out at all. My parents and her were really scared to go out. But later on, they started going out safely with a mask and social distancing. I like this photo because of how it looks and how it captures how a lot of people feel during COVID.

I wanted to make something interesting with this Digital Collage project by having faces match up with the photos I added in with my face, as well as trying to keep the nice atmosphere the image gives off, as I feel the image is somewhat calming due to the white background with subtle pink lighting. I just used images of newspapers, Brad Pitt, and Christian Bale to edit this photograph, as well as some lighting. I just love how the photo looks, and think it came out just as I wanted it to.

My name is Annika Ecklund and this is the photo I uploaded for the project "Flat Lay Photography" in November of 2020. I chose this photograph because I think it was one of the best, or at least most aesthetically pleasing photo I took. The mixture of the lighting from the window and the colors of the paints and subjects really go together. The products in the sun are extremely highlighted and the colors are very vibrant, however, the entire photo is not like that so it is not overwhelming to look at. I also used a blank grey/white table to also mute the background and highlight the colors. I also like this photo because these are all products that I use often. I really enjoy painting and sketching to get my feelings out and it has really helped me throughout my life and struggles. Everything in this photo I have used to create something and then used everything in this photo to create this photograph!

Hi friends!! For my photo, I chose the Vista is beautiful picture because it's probably the project I had the most fun with. I got to walk around downtown Vista with a couple of my friends and I went up to strangers walking around the areas I was in. if I could take their picture. Yes, I believe the Vista is beautiful, but I think the community is what bring out the true beauty of our home. We have so much racial diversity and I think because of that is incredibly beautiful. I used a grapghic design website called Canva to form my template and arranged my photos around the Vista sign in the middle.

This photograph is of one my little cousins for a mood portrait project. This was one of my favorite projects because it was during the stay at home order of covid and this was a project was fun so it helped me stay occupied. My little cousin liked to see the pictures of him and the faces he made for different moods. Then I ended up showing my family the photos and they got a good kick out of it so it was good highlight me for this year.

This is one of the photos I took for the Miniature Worlds project. I chose this photo because this project was one of my favorite projects of the year as it let us show how creative we can get with the miniature people. I like how the photo is focused and framed to have the main focus on the people. I love this photo because it is unique from the other projects and photos I did this year.

This is one of my pictures from the Fill the Frame with a car project. It's my personal favorite because most of the photos came out really really good to my surprise, I was proud of myself. I focused on getting the right lighting and good angles of the 55' Chevy in all its beauty, I lastly finished up the photos with a little editing. This is my favorite  photo from this specific shoot because I love how the shadows made the color of the car look, and the bird on top of the hood looks really cool in this picture.

This picture was from the artist as a mentor project and I really enjoyed making this because it involved lighting something on fire. The whole idea was to capture the light in the darkest area I could find. I personally thought it came out great and I had a lot of fun making it.

This picture was from the "Invisible Man" Project. This photograph is of me with parts of my leg invisible. I manipulated this with Snapseed using the double exposure tool and taking a photo of the background and one with me in it. This is my favorite because it has a fun feeling to it because of the inconsistency of my legs reappearing behind the bars.

This picture was taken for the composition rules project, specifically for texture. I stuck a flower in a pile pf different rocks with great diversity.  I focused by coming in close but not too close, to get where the detail on the surface of the rocks were visible and clear to the eye. This is one of my favorite photos I took in photography class because of the great detail and texture, and as well as the contrast of the flower.

This photo was a recreation of David Hockney's image "mother". I really love the way this image turned out. It was a fun abstract way to represent an image. I created this image by taking a photograph of my grandmother. I took 3 pictures from different angles of her face. I then used an editing tool to create squares of her features. I placed and overlapped these shapes to create her face once again.

This photo was for the cars project. What I did is took this photo when the sun was out so the sun can reflect on the car and make the car more vintage. I really like how the angle I took for this photo. I then edited the picture on the app VSCO and added some color and contrast to the photo. It was very fun and my favorite project I did so far.

This photo is from the reflection in photopea project. I like this photo a lot because it's really trippy and it looks as if there's four palm trees. I used Photopea to manipulate this photo and it turned out better than I expected. Another thing I like is that it was so easy to make but yet it's one of my favorite projects I've done in my photography class.

This image was taken for The project Vista is beautiful photo contest. This photograph is of a lit up sign in downtown Vista. What I did to manipulate this photograph was that I edited it in the photos app  and adjusted the exposure and other things. I like this picture because it's a nice view as you drive along the street .

The photograph came from the David Hockney project, where I had to take multiple close up images of my aquarium so I can use them to make out the full image of the whole aquarium. I really enjoyed this project because it was fairly challenging, is a completely different way to show off an image, and it gave me a chance to photograph my beautiful aquarium.

The photo is from "mirrored Images", where I had to take images using a mirror. I really like this photo because it reminds me of a album cover and because the flower looks like it's floating. I only slightly edited it by saturating the photo to give it some more color.

This image was taken for the "Copy My Pose" project and it features my partner for the project, Adriana. I had my other partner set up the reflector in the background and captured the perfect lighting. I asked Adriana to pose however she felt comfortable and we got this amazing picture.

This photo is inspired by Olivia Bee for the Artist vs
Mentor project. My friends and I went out to the park to take some photos. I used two photos of my best friend and I put them together as a multiple exposure and lowered the opacity on one of the photos. This is my favorite photo because my friends and I had a great time and it was really fun to take these photos.

This image was taken from Drippling Effect project. What I did to create it was to use the Snapseed app to add stamps to an image to add the dripping effect. I like this image because of how stylized it is compared to my other works.

This was an image taken for the Power Word project. I specifically like it because it captures a moment of the thing I like to do most which is horse backriding on my horse called La Consentida. This picture was taken at the Guajome Regional Park and if you ever go you might spot me there. :)

This image is of a flower that was in my apartment complex that I took for the up close flower project. I specifically like this photo because of the unique lighting that seemed to make the dark pink hues on the flower pop.
