Portrait And Self-portrait Tips And Ideas!

Tips:

1) Don't be shy. If you approach people in the right way, they'll usually be happy to have their picture made. It's up to you to break the ice and get them to cooperate. Joke around with them.

2)Think about your motivation and emotions: Blankly staring at the camera rarely gets good results. Be silly, don’t be afraid to over-act. The worst that can happen is that you fill up your memory card with useless photos; but you might also find yourself with a proper gold-nugget of a self portrait.

3) Use a mirror! It seems so obvious, but how to use mirrors is important, too – take it down from the wall, and experiment! 

 

Environmental portrait: 

 I like this portrait because i like the emotion in the guys face you can tel how he is felling and how he isn't the happiest guy in the word. Also to help his emotion and why he probably feels this way is his bed in the background and just by his surroundings. This picture is the environment he is living in.

I really like this portrait because its like they are taking the picture in the mirror which is a good tip they can use. Also they are small little kids trying to take pictures which makes it funny in a cute way. They are kinda like grown ups and you know that's how they feel.

 

Photography self-portrait:

I love this portrait because one day i saw that my mom had took a picture like this and to me it looks so cool that you can see the girls face in the mirror but the picture is taken from behind her i love it. Also the facial expression she has on her face makes it even better.

I love this picture because it was taken in a very odd place which makes it even better. I love the facial expression she has on her face its kinda looks like that looks like she has no clue where she is at and i love it. Also i love how she isn't looking at the camera i think it makes this photo better.

Casual Portrait:

I like this picture because its just a little girl that is just experiencing new things and i love how it was by a mirror and you can see her in the mirror as well.

I like this picture because in it the girl is just really natural no make up she isn't trying to model for anyone she is just being herself by letting these people take the photo of her. Its just really natural and i like it.

Plan:

I will shoot Kimberly in this photography shoot. To make this shoot successful i will make sure there isn't much distracting from her and by making sure everything is in focus. Where will i shoot hum im not sure maybe in the courtyard if it is light outside because good lighting on the person is always good or maybe ill take pictures of her up stairs and me down stairs or the other way around im not exactly sure yet.
