Portrait

For this assignment we were required to take photos in a photo studio and using natural light. For the ones in the photo studio, we had to adjust our shutter speed and aperture so that we could get a halo effect around the subjects head. For the natural light photos, we used a white card to reflect the light onto the side of the persons face that was away from the light. This helped reduce the shadow in the picture.

In this assignment I learned how to use some of the lighting equipment in a studio. I also learned how to reduce the shadows on the opposite side of a persons face when taking a light photo. I had a little bit of difficulty trying to find a window that would let in just enough light but in the end it worked out okay.
