ACCD Photo Sports Class Projects:

Alyssa Lavine Photography
From Fashion to Sports

Having lived in 4 states by the time I was six-teen allowed me to see many forms of culture and contrast.  I remember being able to envision scenarios and imagery in my everyday even as a young girl.  I have always been intrigued by both beautiful and interesting locations, landscapes and it’s inhabitants.  Emotion, depth and small pops of color have to be a strong role in my fashion portrait frames.  Most of my strongest work is shot vertically, keeping my subjects tightly framed. I grew up collecting a wide range of fashion catalogues and magazines.  This has influenced the style, character and nostalgic images I choose today.


Regardless of how I’m framing, I love to shape with natural light and reflectors.  I keep my subjects creatively lit, underexpose my backgrounds, and tend to use a lot of eye contact and sex appeal.  My main inspiration comes from finding the inner emotion and character from within the subject in front of the lens.  I enjoy working with a small team of partners for assistance to juxtapose their talents with my views. 


  

My work is iconic, androgynies, dramatic, and eclectic. The key for all of this is to stay clear with my imagination and ideas while allowing the spontaneous moments to shine through with all that interests me.  This Sports project class will be a great way for me to incorporate my weekend hobby of rock climbing/ surfing into my photo portfolio.  I  look forward in showing my inner monkey through my eye of rock climbing and surfing.
