This blog has been set up for the students of Lisa Finch's Basic Photography class at First Flight High School. I hope that you will use it for discussion, to ask questions, and to verify due dates for assignments. Please post a message so that I will know you've been here. Thanks for visiting!
Over the break I'd like you to take portraits---both head and shoulders and full body shots of individuals. Some should be posed, some candid. Take pictures of children, old people, your family members, strangers. Take a MINIMUM of 40 portraits---one person per shot. We will do lots of activities with retouching them when we come back from holiday! Contact sheet is due on April 16th.

I am an artist living on the NC Outer Banks(OBX). I hold degrees in both Commercial Art and Fine Arts. I am a painter, photographer, and graphic designer. I am inspired by the natural beauty I see on these barrier islands every day, and try to capture that feeling of tranquility on canvas. As much as I appreciate OBX scenery, my favorite subject matter is portraiture--- particularly babies and children. I enjoy depicting pregnancy and breastfeeding. I love capturing that unique mother/child bond. I have a few pieces displayed in local businesses and galleries. However, I can offer a substantial savings when I am able to cut out the middleman, so to speak, by selling and shipping directly. I also accept work by commission. Send me photos of your kids, pets, or house, and I can create a personal painting just for you or a loved one! How about a fantasy piece? Turn the little girl in your life into a mermaid; your young man into a little surfer dude! Samples of my work are online and you may contact me through Facebook or my email address with any questions. obxlisafinch@embarqmail.com
