Final

In this image i learned that the background matter ! The background is one of the most important factors in  taking a picture. I liked this picture because my model actually looks like a serial killer.


















In this picture i learned to sit the model by themselves, because if you have more than one person they start to play around. Models are a rare species. I picked this picture because i like the expression in Chuys face.
In this picture i learned that you need to tan your models. jk, i learned that you need to tell the model when your gonna take the picture because then the eyes come out looking somewhere else. I also like the expression in Anthonys face

In this image i learned that an image can also be taken horizontally. I like this image because she looks stunning & i like how her clothes are matching

In this image i learned that you can make a portrait out of anything, including your hands ! I like this picture because of tyhe expression in Chris's face

In this image i learned to not take a picture when the model matches the background. I like this picture because of how i Photoshopped  myself.

In this image i lesrned that you can take good pictures of anything from point of views that you don't usually see. I like this image because i took it with the first cameras we used & it came out good.

In this image i learned to be careful with shadows because they are hard to photo shop. I like the fact that Chris looks like hes actually floating.

I learned that panning isnt the hardest thing in the world. Its as easy as pressing the shutter button half way. I like this image because of Mr. Pedersons pose.  





























What i learned about this image is that taking a picture with rule of thirds can make an image look good. I like this image because shes doing a handstand. It doesn't get cooler than now.



What are my favorite things in this class ? EVERYTHING. But to be specific, i like all the posters. I like the working environment & most of all i like Mr. Pederson (:

The most important thing i learned about photography was that taking pictures is not just clicking the shutter button & boom. No it takes more than that. You need to check that its not washed out, the backgrounder is OK, the model has to be how you want it.

My advice would be "Don't talk when Mr. Pederson is talking !"


Mr. Pederson your the best (:

Inner Child

 I chose this picture because its a very seductive pose by my model Anthony. Also i think he looks really funny he he. I really like the background in this picture although i could have made it better by adding a greater depth of feel. I feel like i did a good job with the lighting.

 I also chose this picture because i think he looks really funny. I don't know why but my models skin color is white in the picture & the background is darker so that makes my model stand out a little more than usual which makes the picture a little better.




My model Chuy also looks pretty funny in this picture. The lighting & the background are pretty good. I made sure to take pictures of my models in the same spot because i thought it would look better



This picture makes me laugh because of Chuys hair. He looks like a disproving parent. I didn't like how his sweater looks brighter thanks to the contrast of the background, but the picture is still good.






1. My experience with each model was good. Especially with Anthony because he had so many faces & hes a funny person in general. His face expressions where so good. Chuy was also a good model. Although at the end it was a little hard to take pictures because he had ran out of emotions. All his pictures looked funny because of his new haircut. Definitely a challenge we had was lighting. since our class is in the morning, sometimes the sun decides to come out which makes the pictures look a little different. My challenge with Anthony was the reflection of his glasses. I couldn't see his eyes. A difficulty i had with Chuy was his hair cut. I had taken a couple of pictures of Chuy but thanks to his hair cut i had to start all over. My models had a lot of successes. I don't think i had 1 single picture where they weren't modeling. They where both really focused on what they where doing. Especially because this assignment was pretty fun to do.



2.My experience as a model was pretty good. I only wanted to come out in one of the pictures so i could have more time to do my own. I think i had some funny faces. I had to stay focused & hear what my photographer wanted & not be boring. Being a model can help you a lot as a photographer. A photographer works behind the camera but if hes a

    Panning

    I took this picture without using the tripod & focusing on one person running. The challenges i had with with the sun light ! If the sun came out my entire picture would come out washed out & i wouldn't know how to change it.That is why we tried to stay inside a trees shadow for shade.






     I think i took the picture with a tripod & moving at the same speed as my partner. A challenge was getting the face focused. Sometimes i would get the face in focus but my partner was going slow so the picture didn't come out blurry. There wasn't a lot of space where i was working at.
     I took this picture with my tripod & moving the same speed & keeping time was a technique i used. A challenge i faced was the sun once again! also zooming in & zooming out was a challenge.
    I used my hands to hold the camera, i didn't use a tripod. There was only one space with shade where Mr. Peterson would come so i had to take a picture right when he was passing thru the shade or he would come out washed out. That was a major challenge. Also focusing on his face.
