Sophomore Andrea Michel
May 23, 2020
Sophomore Andrea Michel doesn’t have a specific style of photography but loves taking pictures of people on the street. With photography, Michel said she is able to capture unique moments of everyday life that people wouldn’t normally notice.
Michel shot this image in a laundromat, a place she doesn’t normally shoot but thought would be a “vintage” place to take pictures. She noticed a boy playing with a ball, and the bright colors and shadows immediately popped out to her. Michel really liked the way the photo turned out — she barely had to edit it because the colors were so vivid.
“I really like the concept of photography, and I think it’s really overlooked,” Michel said. “People think of it as just taking photos and that’s it, but with photography you can make a thousandth of a second infinite.”
