portrait:
For this assignment we had to take a portrait of someone we cared about using window lighting. It couldn't just be a snap shot, the photo had to show the model,comfortable and natural. Over spring break I went around my house looking for the best place to take this portrait. I found that the window in my bedroom had an amazing light that shines through it at about 5:30. Once i had my place I had my model sit and look towards the corner of the room so that the light would reflect off of her eyes. When taking the photos i realized that i could move my blinds allowing me to control how much light shines on my model. I took a couple of test shots and I liked this lighting the best. Out of the photos i took ,this one looks the best. the lighting is perfect and my model looks natural and comfortable.
