My first object is a little tube of chapstick that my mom gave to me. I really liked the bright colors so I used brightness and vibrance to really bring them out. I brought this chapstick with me to Nashville 2 weeks ago and I used it the whole time. It acts as kind of a memento for me as I can look at it and remember the really fun times I had in Nashville. For this object I photographed it on a pure white background in order to keep the background clean and the focus on the chapstick. I adjusted the lighting until the shadow wasn't too big but it still gave some depth to the object.
This is one shoe out of a pair that I used to wear when I was very young. When I wore these shoes I was probably a little older than 1 year old. These are very important to me because they just remind me how small I used to be, representing how much I have grown. The only trouble I had photographing these objects was that the shoe's color was a really dark brown, so I had to brighten it a lot on photoshop. Overall photographing these was relatively easy, and I really liked doing it because I got to think about how small and cute I used to be as a baby.
