Self Photograpy and Portraits Part II

1. Use props! Are you a dad and a rocker? Bring your kid and your guitar. Are you a photographer? Add camera gear. Painter? Paint. Poet? Words. Make-up artist? Guess… You get the idea.

2. Are there particular parts of their body or items of what they wear that are important to what they do for a living or a hobby? Does some part of them really stand out? Can you find a way to abstract what you want to say about the person by using one of these elements?

 Environmental Portraits:
 I really like this one because it shows the dentists doing what they do best, and in their everyday environment.
 I also like this one for the same reason. The firefighter using the hose to firefight. Sort of. 

Photography Self Portrait:
 I chose this one because it was really creative, and showed two sides to this girl.
I chose this one because it showed this girls inner fears. I'm assuming that she is afraid of clowns because she is dressed up as a clown, and there are arms reaching for her.

I chose this casual portrait because it really showcased this couple and their love.

I chose this casual portrait because it highlighted the family. I think it shows the family in a loving and caring way.

   When I shoot  will be shooting a self portrait. I will use a tri-pod to balance the camera. I want to shoot outside for more natural sunlight. To make this shoot successful, I will try to incorporate as many photography rules as I can.  I really want  a portrait that will capture my essence and  try to display that through this portrait.
