High School Photography
Naramore Art Show – High School Photography
Ballard High School
Artist Statement: Throughout high school, photography has allowed me to not only grow artistically and creatively but has enabled me to capture memories from my high school experience. I am a current senior and I hope to pursue English studies at a university with some electives in art class to keep me taking photos.
Artist Statement: Through my photos, I like to document memories and moments to look back on, as well as alter and play with my photos to create something different from the mundane captures.
Artist Statement: As a photographer, I love to figure out different ways to emphasize my subject as there are so many different techniques. It is a creative outlook and physical portal to how I see the world.
Artist Statement: As a photography student, I’m impressed when artists make their surroundings seem unique and exciting. Growing up in Seattle, my work documents the extreme environment of Western Washington. I hope to invoke feelings of wonder and rushes of adrenaline in the viewers of my photos. My ultimate goal as a photographer is to encourage people to explore the environment in which they live.
Artist Statement:
What originally started as an easy class to take during my senior year of high school turned into an assignment that piqued my interest in exploring the world and expressing myself in more creative ways. After high school, I plan to go into engineering but I hope to continue finding ways to use photography to experiment and better appreciate life.

Artist Statement: I love photographing nature, and I added depth by carefully cutting out layers of my images and adding quotes by John Muir.
Artist Statement: When I heard we were doing a personal portfolio, I immediately knew I wanted to photograph mountains. I thought that would be too simple, so I made a photomontage with images I took of mountains and other things like twigs, my drawing, and snow.
Artist Statement: I was inspired by Carrie Mae Weems’ work, since she made black and white portraits of people and put text over some of her images.

Artist Statement: This project is dedicated to my friend Nickel. Connection is a powerful force that I wanted to showcase. It isn’t easy to achieve but it’s worth striving for and building. I hope you enjoy my project.
