This final photography project, Reflected Identity, displays a period of creative exploration and artistic independence during my college career. With full creative freedom in a photography course, I developed a cohesive visual narrative centered on my model, Whitney Smith, focusing on composition, lighting, and mood to convey a distinct perspective. This collection showcases my ability to translate abstract ideas into compelling imagery while thoughtfully directing and collaborating with a subject. It represents both my technical growth and my evolving creative voice, emphasizing storytelling through visual form.
