Carys, Antwan, and I were invited to our friend's, Sara, Halloween-themed football watch party hosted at her boyfriend's home, so I thought it would be a great opportunity to shoot a story. It was hard figuring out what to take for the first picture. I didn't want to take a self-portrait of my costume and I felt like taking a photo of Antwan's car would not add any value to the story. I decided to take a picture of Antwan and Carys from the backseat because it gave the vibe that we were headed somewhere.


This assignment really made me think about the assignment we shot with little light. The watch party was hosted outside on the patio and good lighting was pretty scarce. I had to increase the ISO and open the aperture all the way. I had the most difficulty figuring out how to adjust the camera settings in the garage. The garage was brightly lit with artificial lighting but there were huge shadows created by the objects in the room.
