Portraits and Self Portraits PREVIEW- Start Planning

Tips

1. Get Close
2. Approaching Unfamiliar Cultures
3. Hands and Other Details

Environmental portrait


I like this photo for its background, I like the sparks that are present from the guy working. The background is blurred so it helps make him the main subject. 

I like this photo because it has a good background of nature that doesn't take away from the man hitting the soccer ball. 



Photography self portrait













I like this photo because I like how there are actual butterflies on his face. Butterflies don't magically sit on top of peoples eyes for a photo, so I think the photographer did a good job having created this image.













I like this photo because it draws the artist in me. I like how the person in the photo has black paint on her face because it blends with the background, so the paint helps bring out the eyes of the girl.

Overall, I like these photos because I think it shows artistic features. The paint and butterflies are unique objects and I think they draw attention to the portraits.


Casual portrait 













This photo is unique because it has a black background which makes the dancer appear more clear. I also like this photo because it shows that the girl is involved with dance.












I think that this photo is great because it's adorable and sweet. Old couples are what a lot of people want in life and this photo is a good representation of happiness. :)



For my photoshoot of self portraits I think I will shoot pictures of my brother Evan because he's the most photogenic person I can think of. I'll probably shoot this photo with a plain nature background so he's still very noticeable. To make the shot successful I got to make sure Evan is the main subject and that the nature isn't taking away from him.
When I take my own self portraits I need to adjust to learning how to use the timer camera and making sure I get in my sot quickly enough. If I shoot the photo in my room I plan on having my fairly lights in the background of the photo. To make this successful I want to add objects like music, my cat, or paint for things that all represent me because it would make the photo more unique.
