Portraits

This is my mom, i like this photo of her because i think you can tell that she doesn't want to be in the outdoors. 

I love this photo because their are a lot of things you can take from it and make it relate to you.  I love how dark the photo looks and how he pops out of the photo. My grandad is always outside, he takes a walk every morning, he works on the yard, and always pointing things out.

i love this photo because again it could mean a lot of things. The leaves vary in color and make the photo look more hopeful.

portraits intro

1) In school I'm going to photograph alena, each person has a backstory that you may not know about. i want to capture that backstory. at home I'm going to photograph my dad because he looks intense when he is working, and focused. He is an important in my life . im going to try to capture texture, intensity, expressions, create a backstory, and feeling.
2) Five things i learned was the difference between candid and portrait, the difference between getting up and personal and far away

I like the intensity in her legs but yet she seems so laid back making it look easy

i like this picture because of the natural framing and the bright colors, he doesn't notice the beauty around him.

Like this photo because the photo looks bright but because the child has a flashlight impies that it is dark. Making him look or imply that he is scared, but his facials don't show it.
