This is was my first time behind the camera. I used a simple Black and White format for my pictures, with a simple white background for my model. It was a completely new experience being the one behind the camera and not in front of it. I really enjoyed the change, finally being in control and being able to call all of the shots with complete authority over the shoot. Sadly enough, I was one of the people who didn't bother to focus the camera (yay bad eye sight), and my picture came out blurry. But my model was beautiful, so it all works out!
The most frustrating of the entire experience in my opinion was printing the actual picture; I got really confused with the timing of the light exposure and the way to time all the chemicals to develop the photos. In the end though, I was able to successfully print and develop my not so successful picture to its perfect blur of perfection. = )
