Portraits

15. Hold Your Camera on an Angle.Horizontal and Vertical framings are not the only options when it comes to shooting portraits. While getting your images straight can be important in when shooting in these formats holding your camera on a more diagonal angle can also inject a little fun into your images.This type of framing can add a sense of fun and energy into your shots. Just don’t ‘slightly’ do it or you’ll have people asking themselves if you might have mistakenly held your camera crooked.

  4. Experiment with Lighting.Another element of randomness that you can introduce to your portraits is the way that you light them. There are almost unlimited possibilities when it comes to using light in portraits.Side-lighting can create mood, backlighting and silhouetting your subject to hide their features can be powerful.

The Casual Portrait.
Wherever you are with your camera, always be on the lookout for those moments when a person's character shines though. If you have a formal portrait session with someone, make some frames of him while he straightens his tie or while she brushes her hair before the formal sitting. Walk back to the car with her and shoot her on the street. If you are on a spring picnic with the family, look for that moment of bliss when your wife leans back, sated, to enjoy the caress of the warm sun. If you're on the street, look for the impatient expression on a pedestrian's face as he waits for the light to change. Always be on the lookout for the telling moment. Every person has a story, and every picture should tell part of that story.

I like this photo, because the lighting or something, just makes it stand  out.
Self Portrait


I liked both of these self portraits, because both of them are clearly displaying emotion.

Fashion Photoshop

1.They start with a normal person, they seem to try like 10 different hair combinations, then they add makeup and all that stuff. After the photo is take, you can already see a noticeable difference, but after they shape the face and the eyes some, you could not tell that the person in the beginning was the person in the end, which they basically were not that person in the beginning after having so much changed about them. 2. In the second video, it shows us what people do to models in after shooting. In the video, they make changes to then shape of the models face, how tall they are, changing their skin tone, and overall I would say the most noticeable change is they make the model glow. 3. In the third video, the creators show us the photoshop process in reverse. What was originally a piece of pizza is turned into a model. Something that I think the people who made the video were trying to tell people that anything can be beautiful through photoshop. What they did is basically c...
