Messing With Portraits.

I decided because we're going to state soon that I would mess around a little bit with the strobes and the other lights that we have offered in the "other room" we have.




With this picture I was trying to get the lighting right with ISO and shutter speeds.












While I was taking these pictures I remembered that I was taking pictures of a subject, so as me and Steve were talking I just kept taking pictures, sort of like Avedon would, to bring out emotions and the craziest moments he decided to act out in front of the backdrop. I think most of them turned out pretty great.

Which is saying a lot with my deep hate for portrait photography, but if I plan on doing any good at State that I'm going to have to learn regardless.





This last picture of Steve I took with a slow shutter, which did a motion blur, and I thought it turned out really cool (aside from the fact that it was blown out). I decided that for my next project I'm going to experiment more with slow shutters in low light situations so that I can get pictures that are motion blurred. I'm quite excited.

Thank you(:
