Here are some excerpts from larger projects done for the final assignment in the Intro Photo class.

Poetic, intuitive and perceptive describes this body of work from Fred Roy who visited a small Quebec town to explore her family roots and discovered the accompanying fragility, sadness and dignity.

In this excerpt from her final photo portfolio, Catherine chose to photograph quiet and intimate spaces in the winter landscape.

For Rebecca’s graduating project in the photography profile she chose to  portray women in their environments. By using the triptych, she expands the frame and space and gives the viewer further insight into the lives of her subjects.

Here are some examples of the Narrative Image from our second semester colour photo students.

More from intro photo.

Here are a few images from the final intro to photo colour project. Students are asked to produce 12-15 photographs on a theme of their choosing.

Great use of space in these images by Karel Chladek – made for his final project in the Light and Image photo option class.

Here are some interesting portraits from Jennifer Pascual made in a Light and Image photo option class.

For the final colour assignment in our Introduction to Photography course, we ask the students to put together a series of fifteen images based on a theme.  Sometimes the themes are purely formal – images dealing with colour or form or light. Sometimes these themes can be psychological in nature – emoting humour, or joy, or sadness. Sometimes the theme can take on a serious subject. Below you will find excerpts from a variety of intro projects. Their themes run the gamut from the serious – Kelsey Keeble-Laberge’s work tackles the body-image expectations that young women often face in contemporary society, to the formal – Alannah Lloyd, David Leroux and Frederique Roy all explore light, composition and colour.  Portraits play a role, as in Asa Shulman’s photos of his fellow cadets. And for pure lovable idiocy, check out Sean Durnin’s Prank photos.
