Infrared Photography

For my independent project, I chose infrared photography. Using my film camera, Rollei 400 IR film, and a Hoya RM-72 filter, I was able to create beautiful images. I printed my final photographs on metallic paper, which gave them more of the old infrared look. The first photo below is a black and white infrared photo by Sean Farmer. You may notice that the trees have a white glow to them, and the reflection onto the body of water is quite detailed; these are both common things to see when shooting infrared photography. The bottom photo is one of my infrared photos that I printed on metallic paper.

Then and Now

When I was little, I absolutely loved to get dressed up and put my moms makeup on. I had a huge dress-up box and I just had to take it with me whenever we went out of town. It was about that age when I started my first ballet class. I loved dancing because I thought ballerinas were so graceful and beautiful. That passion for dance is still in me today, and I do enjoy dressing up occasionally; this time, not in my moms old bridesmaid dresses!
