Formal Portraits Through My Eyes




Adrien B.

 
Today in class we had to take formal portraits. I took a picture of my classmate, Rachel, I had to try multiple angles before  got to this one . I didn't really have to over expose this picture because Rachel's skin tone and her clothes weren't as dark so I could really get a spectacular shot.  It was kind of difficult using monochrome and trying to remember to make it a portrait. Derek gave me a few pointer on how to take photos of females, but the one that stuck out the most was don't take a straight shot of a female because they will swear they look too "fat" lol. It turned out to be very true, it was the reason I had to take multiple shots of Rachel before we got to this one. I found out that I really like taking portraits and I'm looking forward to taking more portrait pictures.
