The advanced photojournalism:

Throughout the semester we are assigned to shoot essays. Below are listed links to the essays I've completed:

Essay 1- As a class, we were assigned to shoot the Chinese Lunar New Year. I went to Chinatown and got the typical celebration shots, but also made it over to a friend's house in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn to capture moments of a traditional meal.

Essay 2- Our assignment was to photograph the color blue. Now, I don't know about you, but that's pretty abstract. So, I tried to put a story to it...

Essay 3- On February 15, 2003 the world saw the largest coordinate antiwar demonstration ever. In city's around the globe millions turned out to express their discontent with the Bush administration's seemingly steadfast path toward a military invasion of Iraq. In New York City, close to 500,000 people gathered along First, Second and Third Avenues to see a stage of speakers and express themselves. I was able to elbow my way into the press pit in front of the stage, then made my way along the streets in search of freaky scenes. Take a look at what I found.

Midterm Essay- Even residents of New York City have a hard time getting to know every nook and cranny of this vast metropolis. Sometimes ways to explore seem daunting. But, for a group of eager, young professional Manhattanites, a scavenger hunt through Williamsburg Brooklyn served as a great vehicle to get them across the East River into parts unknown. Travel with them on their journey.
