2025 Submissions
Remote Fantasy
I travel by longboard, hoping to snap rare, candid photographs of San Jose, my hometown.
Alice In Wonderland
I caught this moment, just outside of Times Square in NYC, while on a college tour with my family.
Whispers of Light
While going on a camping trip with my family and friends, I woke up one morning to find my brother relaxing peacefully in a canopy connected to two trees.
Neon Nights: Riders in the Glow
This piece delves into the glowing night-life of San Francisco’s riders, and captures the surreal feeling of living life to the fullest with no bounds, a message that they hold close to heart (Maybe a little too close).
An Alpine Expedition
This collection of photographs documents a magical afternoon hiking in the Swiss Alps, referred to as the Bernese Oberland.
RainbowBoy
I used slow shutter to catch the motion of a light stick to make a rainbow feature above my partner’s head.
Inverness Northern lights
This image is a picture of the northern lights that reached down to Inverness CA.
Lifeguard On Duty
While on the beach at Lake Tahoe, I noticed that my father was looking out over the water with a calmness I had never seen before.
Break in Color
I like photography because it helps to capture ordinary things as magical or fictional item, using some different lighting or quite rarely editing techniques you can easily create something that looks out of this world or not normal. Case in point this work which used a crack in a piece of glass using the bright lighting (which would not be useful) and a little bit of color in order to create something that looks fantastical with the crack providing an ample amount of variation in color and the lighting that is normally clipped and thus not useful adding a nice blue glow as well.
Music Unlocked
I decided to do this piece because I think the pursuit of art, as well as STEM, is vital to the quality of our lives.
Night Lights
This piece is important to me because it shines a bright light in the center and has the city in the background showing the beauty of the lights at night.
