Photo 1:
This picture is of my friend, Gabriel, and I at a college football game. I took this picture so I could remember fun things I did in marching band my freshman year of college. The fact that one can tell that I am holding the camera as I take the photo and that the camera is close to our faces makes the photo more personal. The fact that we’re smiling and he’s making the “rock and roll” gesture shows that it is a fun, goofy picture. This photo was mainly for Gabriel and me to keep, but I also posted it on my Facebook profile for my friends to be able to see, and I’m sure I’ll remember this memory 10 years from now.

Photo 2:
This photo was taken by my friend, Juan, to help him build up his photography portfolio. Though we are friends, in this case, he was acting as an artist and I was the subject, so it gives the photo a more professional feel. This photo was intended for Juan to use, not only for interviewers to see, but as advertisement for people to want to come to him for photos. I will definitely remember this photo because it’s a great picture of me!

Photo 3:

This is a photo of a random person I don’t know. The purpose of this photo is to make people laugh (due to the fact that it implies a sexual reference). I chose this photo for the assignment because it made me laugh, as is the purpose, so it does its purpose well. Honestly, I have no idea what the subject’s attitude in the photo was intended to be, or her relationship to the photographer, but my best guess is that she was very drunk and was not in her right mind. I think the audience was supposed to be anyone on the internet that happened to come across it. I doubt I’ll remember this in 10 years.
