Self Portraits and Portraits Part I

1. Play with Backgrounds

2. Experiment with Subject Expressions

3. Candids: Being Unobtrusive

Environmental Portraits

I really enjoy the wide shot of this photo and how the rule of thirds is utilized with this man.

I like this one because the subject is very eccentric looking and the background is nice and simplistic.

Photography Self Portraits

I like this photo because of the subject's "deer in headlights" expression and the black and white gives the photo a classy vibe.

I like the lighting in this photo and the body language of the subject, it creates a visually pleasing photo.

Casual Portrait

I like how the subject appears to be candid in this photo by her laugh. I also like the black and white.

I like this photo because she seems very natural and she's put an angle which makes the photo look nicer.

For the portraits and self portraits photo I will be shooting my little brother (if he cooperates ) and myself. These photos will be shot in an outdoor scenery while the sun is out, and in an area with various stones and plants and a creek. I will utilize the tips I pasted on this post and rules of photography to make these photos successful.
