My First Assignment, But First..... Inspiration



For my first assignment, I've decided to look into using composition in order to produce aesthetically pleasing people photos. The pictures above have each inspired me for very contrasting reasons. The first photo of musician Andre 3000 really serves as a perfect example of black and white, and spacing. The rule of 3rds in relation to Chris Browns Hair designs is what really set that photo apart. Finally, the photo of me at the body really uses lighting and color to make it pop to the eye. I hope to employ all these techniques to produce pleasing photos subconsciously.

Image Triangle F-stop-5.0 Shutter Speed- 1/80 Iso-1600 (AWB) Summary: I realized that I should always have back up plans, and that I should check out my shooting environment before hand. With food, I noticed that people don't really have patience so it's best for you and everyone else to be well fed beforehand.
