Fashion Photography.

1. She was given a lot of makeup, and her face was photo shopped to look more appealing. Things like extending her neck and making her look skinnier. Her hair was also made to look better.
2. Her skin complexion was made to look lighter, her eyes were made bigger and her face slimmer. Her legs were extended so that her body looks more proportional. Her stomach was made to look slimmer also.
3. He thighs and glutes were made to look smaller and slimmer so that her lower body looked more appealing. Her arms were decreased in size and made skinnier. Her hair was edited so that it was more luscious and nice. Her stomach and breast were also decreased in size.
4. I think it is as long as the person is okay with it. If they take a picture of someone, and that person is not as attractive and the people say that he/she is ugly and that they will change her face and everything about her, then i do not think it is acceptable.
5. Yes the subject was unaware of the changes and was insulted because they didn't think he/she was attractive enough. That is one example of it being ethically wrong.
6. Minor changes are ok, like adjusting the lights in the picture or just taking small details out of the picture like skin problems. major changes like completely reconstructing someones face and body is not.
7. in real photography you are not allowed to change the picture in anyway or you are discredited. In fashion photography they can do as they please and completely reconstruct an image to make it better.
8. Fashion photography can influence the way people think of themselves and want to change themselves. Photojournalism effect the peoples emotion, because the image did not have to be altered because it is already powerful.
9. I think you are showing us these videos as an example of how powerful and useful photoshop is. That we can create almost anything out of any picture.
10. Because guys are not as appealing in society as women are. Men wish their women looked like those models, and the women wish they looked like those models also.

Self Portraits Part 1

1. I think a good tip is to always have your subject look at something that is not the camera, because it gives the picture more emotions.

Another good tip is to not be shy when you are taking pictures of people. Get to know them a little bit and get comfortable around them, i think this is important because if you are too shy to take pictures of  people then you shouldn't take pictures at all.

Another good one is introducing a prop, because it gives the picture more meaning and it makes it more interesting.

I like these two pictures because one portrays nature and one is just cool to be honest.

I like these two because they're just really good ideas and i think they are just good pictures.












5.`

i like these two pictures because the two people in this picture seem really happy and love each other. also they pay no attention to the camera, only to each other. 





6. I plan on shooting will baker for the project. I will take him down to the garden with all the flowers behind the school. He will sit on the bench and i will get a picture of his face with flowers behind him. It will be a rule of thirds photo and the flowers behind him will be out of focus.

American Soldier

1. I think this is the most powerful picture because of how emotional the subject is in this photo.
2.A.) #1-#9
B.)#10-#50
C.)#51-#70
2.D.) I think the most powerful pictures were when he returned to Denver, because it portrayed the most emotions from his parents and him self.

2. The images work together to tell a story because it is almost like a slide show of events in order from latest to newest.


3.A They are all in past tense.

B. they help tell the story along with the actual pictures.


3.C Ian launches the duffle bag over his shoulder for training at the military base.
Ian said it was an intense workout but he felt that it was worth every repetition of it.

Aperture Questions and pictures







Aperture F2.8





Aperture F16










Aperture Question

1. The part of the body that most closely represents aperture is the pupil.
2. The smaller the aperture the larger the area in focus, the larger the aperture the smaller the area of focus.
3. Aperture impacts the depth field by affecting object in the background by making them focused or not focused.
