PORTRAITS AND SELF PORTRAITS PT 1

BEST TIPS:

-Play with Eye Contact:It is amazing how much the direction of your subject’s eyes can impact an image. Most portraits have the subject looking down the lens – something that can create a real sense of connection between a subject and those viewing the image. 

- Introduce a Prop:Add a prop of some kind into your shots and you create another point of interest that can enhance your shot.

-Take Unfocused Shots:As photographers we have ‘sharp focus’ drummed into us as an ultimate objective to achieve in our work – but sometimes lack of focus can create shots with real emotion, mood and interest.

ENVIRONMENTAL PORTRAITS:

       I like this photo because of the vibrant flowers framing the men,and i chose it because it was unique amongst the other ones that                    popped up in the search engine

     I like this photo because its humours yet pretty at the same time             with the vines wrapped around                              him,flowers in the background.And i chose it for the same reason.

PHOTOGRAPHY SELF PORTRAIT:

I like that this photo tells a story other than there is a man at breakfast,if you pay attention.

and i chose it for that reason,and the old time diner setting

            i like that this photo it shot with a film camera,

     and i chose it because i thought the lighting was interesting.

CASUAL PORTRAIT:

i like that this photo could have been bare if it wasn't for the different lights shinning on her.And i selected it for that reason,                and the colors compliment each other 

I like the simplicity of this photo,i chose it because i love Obama.
