The Shorthorn, Spring

As this semester at UT-Arlington gears up for the final stretch, I’m photographing again at The Shorthorn. Below are a few samples of recent assignments.

Dr. Maxwell Scarlett was the first African-American to graduate from the university in 1966. Dr. Scarlett looked very poised when we were interviewing him in the University Center, so I decided to photograph his portrait during it:


Interdisciplinary studies senior Beth Boatman relaxes while waiting for her Miller Analogies Test to start in Davis Hall. I spotted Beth as the one of the very few who decided to take a breather on the lawn this past week as the Texas weather permitted it again. I originally wanted to frame it through a pair of a student’s legs while with them walking, but tried my hand on a moving bicycle:


I wanted to try more off-camera flash portraiture, so when it came to Dead @ 17 author Josh Howard, I posed him outside while he looked at his own work (you can read the one-on-one interview with him and photo coverage of ComicCon later this week on The Shorthorn!):


I look forward to finishing my time at the newspaper with a photo sound-slide series based on the personalities of some students I’m presently working with. Keep an eye out for it!
