SELF PORTRAIT AND PORTRAITS

TIPS:
The Rule of Thirds is one that can be effective to break – placing your subject either dead centre can sometimes create a powerful image – or even creative placement with your subject right on the edge of a shot can sometimes create interesting images.

Photograph your subject at work, with family or doing something that they love. This will put them more at ease and you can end up getting some special shots with them reacting naturally to the situation that they are in. You might even want to grab a longer zoom lens to take you out of their immediate zone and get really paparazzi with them.

 Focus upon one element of the image and leave your main subject blurred. To do this use a large aperture which will create a narrow depth of field and focus upon something in front of or behind your subject.

This is my favorite because even though you can;t see her full face you can see the expression she's making which is motivation and hard work and i love the unique pose she's in at the moment. 


I love this one because you can see the shadow in the window and her face expression is just mysterious like i want to know why she made that made in a window and took the picture, i love the scenery in the background 


This one I love because you can see the detail in his face and the emotion thats attached, i picked it because it's close up and just unique in it's own ways usually people want to do young people in portraits but i love that its an old man 

1. That the person is in their element and environment doing what they do 
2. An environmental is where they're in their place and it;s an action but a casual is the face close up in the face in a different angle 
3. Show different angle but close up 
4. I want to take these pictures in an open field of people spread out ad take a picture of each one doing what they do for environment and a person just looking away for casual
