Tips:
- Get closer to the subject (close up)
- Choose a minimalistic background (or one that makes person stand out)
- Rule of Thirds (give subject space to look at) or don't (subject is dead center or close to edge)
Environmental Pictures:
I like this environmental portrait, because the subject is in the center of the photo, which directs my attention towards him. The photo also creates depth in the photo, which brings attention to the subjects workspace (environment).
This is also a good environmental portrait. The light illuminating the subjects face, as well as the sharp focus makes the subject's head and hands pop out more, which shows that the subject works with his hands. The light also illuminates the subjects workspace, which acts as a spotlight for both the subject and environment.
Photography Self Portrait
This self portrait expresses the attitude of the subject in the photo. The black and white colors followed by the serious face shows seriousness in the photo.
This self portrait is also good. The very black background gives attention to the subject. Black and white with the concerned (or relieved) face gives viewers a sense of attitude or situation that is happening in the photo.
Casual Portrait:
This image is a good casual portrait. The subject's smile as well as the leaning pose generates the sense of relaxation or content-ness in the photo.
This is also a good casual portrait. The subject is looking off at the camera, giving viewers an interest in what he's looking at (directing more attention in the facial area). The red background makes the blue suit pop out more, which brings more attention toward the subject.
I will be taking pictures of myself and my brother. If taking the equipment out of school is not allowed, then I'll switch to taking a picture of a classmate, such as Emilio or someone else (with their consent of course). For my brother, the living room would most likely be suitable, as it is where he plays the most. For a self portrait, I could take myself in my room. My room has some young photos of me, which can act as props, and doesn't have distracting background. All portraits will most likely be indoors, because that represents the idea that my brother and me are not often outdoors (for entertainment). If outdoors, there is a local park nearby, which is usually vacant. To make portraits successful, I can always move my brother to various locations, and taking a picture of my self will only require a timer on my camera (or a mirror). Close ups and the Rule of Thirds should help emphasize the photo.
