Calumet Disappointment

I went to Calumet and it was just plain disappointing to see how much the prices were to make my prints. I'm pretty broke right now so I am going to check online and see if I can find any good sites to get the prints. I'm thinking snapfish might be good. So I got the chance to work on at least one picture today. Here it is.

Calumet/Portfolio







First Blog; Portraits






So I have finally built my own blog. I have about 10 other ones running around as projects for the different classes I am enrolled in this semester, but this one is different. This will showcase my work and serve as a virtual portfolio for my work. And don't let the name fool you. While it is called "alexanderingramphoto", do not expect only pictures. I will post any videos I have as well documenting my life in the art realm and any other work that I am currently doing.

With that said here are a few portraits I captured last week. Working with lighting is always fun and I had a day off and the opportunity to check out a light kit so I called up my friend greg(a rapper who goes by the alias of Nonsense) and got some shots of him. I attempted to show the juxtaposition between Greg the person and Nonsense the rapper through the different shots. I also have a picture of my beautiful girlfriend who was gracious enough to help me set everything up.

Here are the shots.
