Portfolio picture 4.

Now this picture, I think is my favorite.  I liked the way Taeok posed in this picture. It's different than any picture I've ever seen before actually. I edited the brighness and contrast, and also made it black and white.  I like where the shadows are in this picture. The pose in this picture makes the photo have sort of a story. To me it looks like he's hidng, but dancing at the same time. It's really weird, but i like it.

This picture is really quite interesting to me. This is another dance picture where Taeok is posed in a position that isn't so "dancy" which makes the picture look even better. I didn't really do much photoshopping to this picture because I really liked the way it came out sort of dull, and nautrally. I liked the shadows on the right side of the picture, and how the quality is some what dull.

This is where my portfolio started to change, i started to shoot indoors and use the white background in Ms Miles room. I attempted to shoot Taeok in sort of a "dance" style, but i didn't want to do the normal dance pictures, of people jumping because those are so typical. I liked the position Taeok was in, in this picture.. and when i started messing with it on photoshop i was using the clone tool, and this is how the picture came out. Taeok and i were editing it together and we both agreed that we thought this looked weird but cool at the same time, so i decided to keep it.

Again, Taeok wasn't posing. But it looked like a pose just a little bit to me, so I liked it. The lighting looked really good in this one, and his blonde streak looks good in here. I like the contrast in this photo, and I photoshopped this picture and I played with the brightness/contrast which made the blonde streak really stand out. I also changed levels of this picture, and I like the way the shadow makes the picture look.

For some reason I ended up liking this picture.. Again he wasn't really posing for me, he was just kind of moving as I snapped pictures of him. I liked the way the light really enhanced his blonde streak, it made the lighting look a little bit better. This picture is really awkward but I like it.

In this photo I shot Taeok.. again. He's a really good model actually, even though he gets on my nerves. Ha, jk. Well anyways I shot him in the studio, and was really just messing around with different kinds of lighting, he wasn't really paying attention when I shot him, he was actually playing with his phone.. o_O but I think I made it work pretty well. I like the way the light was really more focused on his face.. And also the really big shadow in the background.

Photo 2.

This is another shot like the one i took before, but this was less of a head shot to me.. i chose this one because i liked the way Taeok's blonde hair went against the strobe light.

Photo 1.

This is the start of my portraits. I shot Taeok, and this was just a head shot for him to have for his Resume's for dance.. but I actually ended up liking it. I used the white back drop in Ms Miles room &the strobe. I like the way the strobe makes this clear effect and i like the way there are shadows on his neck, and really shows the linging of it.
