THE WORK OF KARALINE HOUSTON FINAL ONLINE PORTFOLIO

My Journalism Portfolio

Hello

My name is Karaline Houston

I am currently 20 years and a sophomore at Mercer University. I am majoring in both Law and Public Policy and Journalism. I have always been passionate about photography, videography, writing, and journalism as a whole. One of my favorite hobbies is shooting on film and the process of developing. I love the unique experience and quality I can achieve shooting film photography.

My Portfolio

My portfolio is comprised of photographs I've taken through out this year. Through my photography I hope to portray the beauty of everyday life, tell stories, and add a sense of personalized depth to my images. By looking at my portfolio, I hope you gain a understanding of my photography style, creative insight, and artistic choices.
