Larisa

Face/Personal Style: This is a remake of an old self portrait. I initially took it when I was playing with angles. In this version, I added the hand for depth of field. I wish the tip of the flower was inside the frame.

Earrings/Personal Style:
I originally shot this photo of my mom's earrings on the counter because it reminded me of being really little and watching her put makeup on in the bathroom mirror. I reshot it closer up and in focus. I included a toothbrush for a sense of place. My images tend to be sentimental and linked with my personal associations and memories.

Landscape:
I chose this scene because the composition of the buildings appealed to me. It was evening, and the sunset had a peaceful feel. After I looked, I saw the boat; I shot the scene on a tripod and then made it an HDR.
