Drowning in Dreariness

This portrait is one of my favorite photos I have taken. My goal in taking this photo was to represent sadness in a young woman. When people look at the photo I want them to interpret it differently based on their hardships when they were young adults. I took this photo in the bathtub with my neighbor who often models for my portraits. In this process, I tried many different angles to find the one I liked the best. I also used a bathroom to make the water appear a pinkish purple color. I have found that portraits are my favorite types of photos to take

Growing up I never thought I was creative because I was never good at drawing, painting, writing, or other artistic things we did at school. That was until I got to high school and found a passion for photography and was able to express my creativity through that.
