Photography Samples - Portrait Lighting

Butterfly

This type of lighting is produced when the object's face has a shadow under the nose only.  A 

Loop

This type of lighting is made when the object's face has a loop-shaped 

Rembrandt

This lighting is formed when the objects face has a triangular shaped shadow under one side of the nose.  

Split

This lighting is made when the face is half light and dark.

Examples of Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO

Aperture - Wide(F2-F4)

Aperture - Narrow (F16-F32)

The aperture is one of the three components that can be used to select or completely focus on an object in the photograph by changing the size of the opening that allows light through the sensor. When the size is wide, like f32-f11, the picture tends to be blurry in the background since there is more light coming through the sensor. And when the size is narrow, like f4-f1.4. there is less light, therefore this results in the background becoming more clear, which is shown above.  

Shutter Speed -Blur

 

Shutter Speed - Fast

The Shutter Speed is how quickly or slowly the shutter opens and closes. When the shutter speed increases its number to 1/1000-1/125, the shutter closes faster resulting in moving objects in the photo to freeze completely still. Furthermore, when the shutter speed is low, like 1/8-1/2, the moving objects end up becoming blurry and unclear. When the shutter speed is high the photos tend to give a cool effect since viewers are seeing random objects such as water or beings define gravity or time and when the shutter speed is low the photo makes the image look as if time is speeding up or passing by quickly.      

ISO - High

     


ISO - Low

                                                                                                                                                                   

ISO is the sensitively of the sensor. When the image has low ISO, like 150-200 the photo has finer grains, unlike high ISO, like 400-25600, the image ends up gets more grainy. When the ISO is low it creates a more clean edge, unlike high ISO which gives you a more eerie look.   

Richard Avedon Documentary Questions

Richard Avedon Documentary

1. When Richard Avedon refers to portraits he uses the words contradiction, complexity and connected because of how essential each other them are in creating portraits. First, contradiction is the base of a photo, it combines the ideas and features in order to create the ideal image. Next, complexity is important to taking portraits because it's what makes the image unique and different compared to other photographs, such as manipulating lighting or facial expressions. Lastly, connected, is the key aspect of a portrait because it brings together the entire image's vibe and links the message as a whole. Therefore, when Richard Avedon uses contraction, complexity and connected it explains how he actually makes the people in the photographs express themselves with these aspects.                                                                                                                                             
2. When Avedon moved towards portraits that were simple and clean he actually started to challenge himself to look beyond in the different aspects in a portrait. By eliminating the individual's surroundings it isolates and makes the viewer focus on one object and increases the specific features that make the individual original and different than any other. Therefore, when Avedon started to create simple portraits he was challenged to make the individual stand out with its different but natural facial expressions and features that define who they were.                 
3.  Photography is a fascinating creation by how it freezes time at any moment. By doing this it lets viewers admire success and creatively from others at a whole different level than painting, Not only that it displays the history of the individual itself and compares it to the present. However, when the image freezes it does not show life since it's not in the present, but in the past. Therefore, photography is an advantage and disadvantage because you can catcher moments that should be the individuals' memories and experiences.                                                                                                                               
4. What and who inspired you to become a photographer and how were to able to express and share it when photographing.               

Portrait Photography Analysis

By: Maegan and Leah from Poetic Portraits 

_________________________________________________________________________________

Analysis

I decided to select this photograph created by Poetic Portraits because of it's unique and fascinating aspects, such as lighting and contrast. Lighting, for example, is one of the main features that increases the cheerful atmosphere. The light comes from the sky shown from the reflection of the balloons and character's hair, which makes the scenery more open and bright. Furthermore, even though the light source is beyond the main focus point it still develops smooth and spontaneous shadows from the moving objects and individual since the light source is natural and outdoor. Therefore, the format of the lighting results in creating a more happy and positive mood throughout the photograph. Not only is the lighting the main aspect in creating this joyful vibe, the colour and contrast are too. Even though the photo is in black and white is still creates a positive vibe. The reason being is that it makes the image look as if it is from a happy childhood memory since it has low contrast and has a young 2-year-old subject. The contrast is critical because is develops smooth transitioning in the image, which develops a more gentle and amiable picture. Thus is makes the photo more appealing in which it resulted in persuading me into selecting it. Additionally, the balance of the light and dark spaces complaints the whole vibe as well because of the bundle of light coloured balloons. One could say that if there was no light coloured filler in the photo where the balloons were, it would decrease the positive vibe as well as create an isolated and unbalance photo between darks and lights since the background is mainly dark. Besides the camera and lighting positioning, the subject itself created a more cheerful mood too. First. one could say that the expression of the character displays a happy and natural feeling since she is seen laughing and carefree. Also, the posture of the character is seen as being natural because of the fact that she is being informal by running and looking away from the camera. Therefore, this would create a more appealing scenery and would go well with the background of the spacious field and sky because it focuses on the object more, which would create a more happy and positive atmosphere in the photograph. In conclusion, I personally selected this photo because of its positive vibe and balance layout created by the object's expression and movement as well as the outdoor scenery and lighting. Since the photo displays a pleasant and carefree feeling it makes readers such as myself think of the positively throughout our lives and makes us happy. Therefore, I selected this image because I wanted to share the photos strong pleasant atmosphere, which is displayed with unique aspects of this photo.
