Lauren F - Portrait


The photograph I chose to use was the photo I captured of Alexis. In this picture, Alexis is positioned in a way where it just works. She is sitting on these steps that we found at Mt. Laurel. This photo really captures my eye, I guess it is the way the steps in the background really stand out. Her facial expression is really strong and the way she is sitting on the steps look great. She positioned her foot where it is kind of at an angle, she uses her hand and lets her head rest upon it, also the way the cardigan is kind of laying on the steps beside her just makes this picture all come together. For this portrait, I used a couple of things. First I would fix up the image and use the patch tool and also the spot healing brush tool to get rid of any blemishes, then I would add some brightness to the picture and contrast. After that, I go and add vibrance and a little bit of saturation to the photo. Finally, I add some offset to the photo and a little exposer to it. I loved this assignment. Portraits are one of my favorite things when it comes to photography.
