Portraiture












 Artsy
 Color
Black&White

This is my model, her name is Rina and she is my cousin. She is a sporty athletic person who likes dressing casual nice. She is outgoing and overall happy. I showcased her personality because she was chillaxing and i was like "smile" so i got her while she was doing some things. she is a quiet person a lot of times so i got some shots with her looking away. but with the right people she is open like the ones in the grass. she is at the same time a serious person who always has to do the right things and get things done perfectly so i had to explain her certain positions i wanted her to be in.

I really enjoyed this assignment. i liked how it made my photos look like i actually have skill. It was cool to realize how the pros will take their photos. having Elaine come in to show us some of her examples was a cool experience because i was able to adapt what she taught to what i can do. i liked how photoshop has actions. i never used them so i liked seeing the different effects and how it can change the photos. i loved the end results. I thought it was weird looking at the photos without edit and comparing it to the photo after editing it. but the end results were phenomenal i think.

 My model liked it, and other people thought it was good also. some tips is to take photos on different days and use different outfits and locations. the most annoying part for me was finding a good time to take photos because it seemed to always be too late so we used indoors as a last resort. what i did well was telling her what to do and she listened which was really helpful.
