"Cookie Contest"                                                 © Barca

The model on the left is Dan and is very competitive and the model on the right is Vincent. In these two photos they are having a cookie eating contest. I tried to capture the intensity of the competition in the first image. In the second image Dan was the winner.

In this diptych Sydney is trying to blow a huge bubble with her bubble gum, but with the helping hand of Ms. Friedman (Literally) it resulted in a mess on Sydney's face. I wanted the mess to be a larger mess, but Sydney wasn't able to blow a big enough bubble.

The objects were flowers. My models were my sister, Jen, and two of my friends, Kaitlyn and Denise. They were very excited to work with me on this project. I tried to capture the beauty of these flowers while these lovely models posed with them.

"Dancing in a Nightmare"                                   © Barca

I created a story line to actually help me with this project. I've put a lot of thought in the story, the set, the models, the theme, etc. This wasn't an easy project, but I must say that this has probably been my favorite one. I had a lot of fun with this one. I felt like a professional photographer. But I tried to create a photo that matches the story, with the young dancer, abusive father, dead mother, and the innocence of a young girl. I feel I covered all the elements that I needed to portray in the photo to correlate with the story. If I had more time to work on this I would have definitely spent a lot more time to make it exactly how I pictured it or even better. But overall I believe I was successful with my work. I hope you feel and understand the dancer's nightmare.

I want to thank my three models/friends, Sydney (young dancer), Shontae (dead mother), and Romario (abusive father). Without them,  I wouldn't have been able to create this photo. We actually had a lot of fun shooting this. It was a lot of work and a lot of thinking. And even though Sydney's leg was in great pain and she wasn't allowed to be dancing she still agreed to help me by being my model.
