Retouched Untouched After going to the duck pond I learned the different angles to get the best lighting. We used a paper with pose ideas on it to help decide some poses to do which was pretty helpful in giving us pose ideas. We didn't use the reflector on any of these photos, but we attempted to use it of our other partners photos and it was sort of difficult to use because it was sort of gloomy and dark outside. To retouch the photographs I followed the steps of the video. First I outlined the face and blurred it. Then I blurred out all the baby hairs and the skin. After that I got rid of any blemishes or marks and evened out the skin and that was it. One job that uses portrait photography is a wedding photographer. Wedding photographers are hired by wedding planners of the bride and groom. The average salary of a wedding photography is around $203,00 and the average charge for taking someones portraits is around $252.

Everyday day you are learning new things and expanding on your education whether that be from a book, a teacher, or even from your everyday experiences. Learning overall allows you to expand on your life and teaches you to be more understanding of certain things. This photograph shows a boy taking a book off a bookshelf. The book represents opportunities for education and learning experiences and the boy is standing in a library full of books, "new opportunities". If you stop for a moment and look around, you'll realize that you are learning new things everyday and the world is full of so many opportunities.
I brought in muffins to take photos of. There isn't specifically anything special about the muffins I brought in, but I think the plain white background looks very nice against the muffins. Five things I learned from the video we watched are:
1. Still life is a work of art depicting mostly inanimate subject matter, typically common objects 2. Food stylists are used to help manipulate the food and make it easier for the photographer to take the photo 3. Food photography is one of the fastest growing areas of focus in today’s photography world 4. A quality still life photo takes careful planning, the background must be thought out and taking photos in different positions will help you get all the angles 5. Food stylists make certain foods out of different materials to allow the food to not get messed up so they can shoot for longer, for example they can use glue to look like milk I made my photos look similar to the professional photos by taking the photos in all the same angles the professional pictures were taken and focusing on little details to make sure the photos turned out similar. Three things I learned from this food photography project are: 1. Make sure you have a clean/nice background, because it can affect the entire picture. 2. Try taking the photos in different angles and position the food differently so you get a unique shot. 3. Make sure the lighting isn't too dark, too light, or have shadows or else the photo will not be good enough; good lighting is key. Some careers/businesses that use food photography are the food network, people who post recipes on a blog, Pinterest, magazines, etc. I think I was successful in making the food look appealing and pleasing to the eye. I would do food photography again, because I love food and taking pictures of your food when it looks nice is fun to do. |
