Final Project Part 2- Portrait


What do you see?
Michelle is standing behind branches from a tree, beside a fence. If you see closely there trees far behind her.  She is wearing a plaid shirt and a high bun. The light is coming from the top right corner.

How is the work organized?
Texture is seen in nature. Their is not really a focal point that I wanted to capture, that is why movement and rhythm are present through the branches that are connected. There is also perspective present in the photo, because you can see the fence getting smaller and further into the distance. The red accents of the shirt and the green color of the leaves complement each other very giving the photo a nice color theme.

What is the artist trying to communicate?
My intention of this portrait was to show how people are connected and affected by nature. We should take care of nature and be aware of contamination.

What  do you think of the work?
I think it was successful. I like that the plants did not overwhelmed the presence of the model.

Final Project Part 1- Series







What do you see?
In each photo the model is emphazised a different way surrounding her the dry nature. In two photos her entire body is shown in the photo. The other two only a part of her body like head and feet.

How is the work organized?
I emphasize the model by plain surrounding and natural lighting. Also by shooting from different angles in each one. For example the one where she is laying in the ground.

What is the artist trying to communicate?
Their really isn't an intention for the series, they just relate by the surroundings and different angles from the model.

What do you think about it?
I really enjoyed shooting the series and liked the outcome.
