VSCO is definitely the app for all your photography needs. The app features a built-in camera with features you could find on a professional camera. You have a lot of editing options including many filters and unique features. It also serves as a space to post your photos for others to see on your profile. It acts almost as a professional Instagram.

In this project, we learned and applied the techniques to the rule of thirds. We had to make sure there was enough light to take a quality picture. Personally, I liked all my photos to be near the windows or outside. Once we found an ideal location we would find a good position on one of the thirds. I like using the rule of thirds because utilizing it always sets up the photo just right. In the picture of the fire alarm, the alarm is on the vertical left grid line. In the picture of Bella, shes standing in between the two grid lines, her head is on the top horizontal line.
In this project, we placed a subject against a back-lit white background and adjusted the ISO and shutter speed on the camera to let less light in. I thought the black background was easier because the lighting on this project was hard to perfect. Then we edited and cropped them in Adobe Photoshop. Leaving the ISO and shutter speed as it was didn’t work and the photos didn’t turn out. We found that the further we held the light from the person the better the photos were.
