Portfolio Presentation 4
Danielle Schaeffer
I have always loved photography, but it was not until my freshman year in college that I decided I was going to teach myself how to use my father’s digital single-lens reflex (SLR) camera. I read the entire manual and I learned everything about that camera inside and out. This portfolio shows how my hard work paid off and also gives a little insight into my interests.
This portfolio is a collection of photographs that I took in various destinations along some of my
journeys.
The camera used to take the photographs in this collection is a Nikon D-50 SLR. I used two different
Tamron lenses; a 50-80mm and an 80-210mm, depending on what kind of shot I was looking for.
All photographs are digital prints and some have been altered or digitally re-mastered using
Photoshop.
The following set of photographs were taken in late early September of 2009 at an antique fire truck show at the fire department in my
hometown in northern New Jersey.
The following set of pictures were taken on Nantucket Island off the coast of
Massachusetts in June of 2009. I have vacationed on the island for as long as I can remember and have grown quite fond of its
New England charm. Many of these photographs illustrate various buildings and
structures on the island due to my passion and intrigue for different architectural genres.
