Photography


Question Posted Wednesday April 30 2008, 7:04 pm

I'm in photography, and our next assignment is portraits. We have to do self portraits and natural lighting [i.e. sunlight], which can be of anyone. For self portrait, I had the idea of doing a picture like this columnist did:

I don't really want my face in the picture, but if it has to be, that's fine. We only need to actually print one of each, but incase some don't turn out, I want extra.
Do you have any creative ideas as to what I can do? I need ideas for both, but especially self portraits. Thanks in advance! :)

you should put the camera on timer and go a couple of times to get it right.


you should ask that columnist how she did it though


if i were you, i wouldnt look at the camera. i would look down or to the side or up but not at the camera. and curl ur eyelashes!


you could take some pictures near sunset so its kind of dreamy, not too much light. be sure to catch thesunset in the background! this also works for sun-Rise!



would your teacher let you take some at night? as dark as you can have it be where you can still barely makeout your features (without flash)


you could set up a tripod so it gets you at an angle from above, and have it take a picture of you sitting in the grass with flowers around, maybe one in your hair. makesure you arent looking at the camera, but looking down at the flowers or smiling at somthing dead ahead. maybe you could be reading a cool book like romeo and juliet or somthing.


BEST OF LUCK!

if you need more, or examples, just inbox me!
