Poses

Tall

 Location: In front of the 400 building

Problem(s): Finding the right lighting

This photo stood out because Marco looks dominant. What could be improved is the angle that I took the photo from, I should've got lower, and the lighting.

Location: Under the umbrellas

Problem(s): Finding the right lighting, the pictures I take are always super bright.

This photo stood out because Karinas legs are elongated, making her look tall. What could be improved is the lighting and the background of the photo.

Seated

Location: Near the attendence office

Problem(s): Lighting

This phoro stood out because I like the way Marco is sitting. It looks casual. Something that could be improved is the background and the brightness of the photo.

Location: By the umbrellas

Problem(s): Lighting

This photo stood out because she looks like she's just chilling. Like she wasnt' trying to pose. Something that could be improved in this photo is the shadows. The shadows on her face make her look darker.

Lean

Location: Next to the 200 building in the front of the school

Problem(s): The shadows from the tree

This photo stood out because of the way I took it, I like how it's zoomed in, rather than showing his entire body. I also think that the shadows on his face from the tree add to the photo, even though it looks like he has a mask on.

Location: Next to the 200 building in the front of the school

Problem(s): Finding the right angle to take the photo from, so that the shadows fromt he trees didn't look to funky.

This photo stood out because It was better than the photos I took of Karina. To improve this photo, I would try to add more light to his face.

Environmental

Location: Near the vending machines

Problem(s): The prop didn't really define him

This photo stood out because of the crispness. To imporve this photo I would've tried to find better light.

Location: Next to the attendance office.

Problem(s): The prop didn't define Karina's personality

This photo stood out because she looks like a pro tennis player. I like the lowkey depth of field as well. Something to improve this photo would be to make the colors more vibrant.

Wildcard

Location: Near the vending machines

Problem(s): Finding the right lighting

This photo stood out because it makes me laugh every time I look at it. Something that can be improved in this photo is the gloomy-ness.

Location: Near the vending machines

Problem(s): The lighting of the photo is very washed out

This photo stood out because of the facial expression Karina made. To improve this photo I would try to get rid of the gloomy background.

The most challenging part of this assignment was finding the right lighting for my photos. To resolve this problem I need to choose better locations with better lighting. I also need to take more of a variety of photos, so I'll have more to choose from. My photography skills increased a lot. The knowledge I gained from this class is very helpful. I never used to pay attention to f/stops or shutter speeds before I took this class. Before the end of the year I would like to learn about anything you're going to teach. (:

Vermeer

With shooting portraits of someone else, I had problems with the right lighting. The challenge of being a model is trying not to look weird and being camera shy. I think that being open and having social skills makes a good photographer.
