This photo is just based around the concept of aspirations.

'Shoot for the stars' and such!

Mithila Majithia: Theme #4 - Shame.

Hey everyone,

I was pretty stumped as what to shoot for shame originally but my awesome friend Jordynn from the other class told me I should maybe go for something personal that I felt strongly about.
Like most kids, I had a bit of a rebellious phase, but one of the things I remember most when I look back were the moments where I stopped, thought about what I was doing, and felt genuinely shameful that I was lying and hiding things from my parents. 

So yeah, a little mushy on this one, but I hope you like it.

Also, I was stuck between doing it in color or black and white, but I felt like this just suited the mood of the photo.

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

Mithila Majithia -- Theme 3: ICON

Hi there everyone,

So my concept for this theme was to pick the maple leaf as my 'icon' since it's a globally recognized symbol of Canada. I decided to shoot a portrait and styled my model [she's from Ottawa] in a true mid 80's North American way. Essentially I just wanted this photo to be a playful portrait that made use of my icon of choice and integrated it into the elements of the portrait.

I have two photos that I couldn't decide between, so I'll leave it up to you, although I was always leaning towards the first one.

Thanks for your feedback!

Mithila Majithia - Theme #2: Exotic

Hi all,

This is a portrait I took of my friend Lucy from Wednesday's class. I wanted to keep it simple and focus on her facial features since I've always been interested in the way people's appearances can change across racial backgrounds.

Mithila Majithia -- Theme 1: Fast Food.

Hey everyone,

Apologies for the lateness, I thought I scheduled this to post in the afternoon but I guess that didn't work.

I decided to keep it pretty simple and take a look at the literal link between consumption and consumerism within the concept of 'fast' food. I'm pretty sure we've all chowed down on a burger at some point and know exactly how it feels to just want to eat without paying any regard to the downsides of fast food. 

Thanks,
Mithila.
