I learned that snap shots and portraits are not at all the same. The only similarity they might have is that they both involve people. Not just any picture of someone posing looking good is a portrait. First of all a portrait uses natural lighting from a window of a door slightly open. You capture a moment because the person does not look at the camera as if the person doesnt  know you are there. In simple words it not someone posing  ,more like just being themselves an capturing that . That is what i learned.

This picture was taken outdoors .We learned how to use strobe lights and work in group of 3 and it was really fun. First we had to come up wit an idea on how to organize the models .We also learned how to connect all the plugs and unplug the power box correctly.We always learned new photo techniques to make are pictures better.I really enjoyed this project and hope to do more projects as good as this one and learn new thing each time.

This project was fun and the first step was using the lasso tool on phtoshop to cut out my face then i picked a background and placed a copy of my face on it and then cleared the edges to make nice sharp cuts.

This project in photoshop called softening was really fun and its really cool to edit photos when you want to make yourself look like in a magazine or something like that. Once again it was all step by step details .I keep on learning everyday more new brushes in photoshop and i have lot of fun .Im really enjoying the class.

This project was done outdoors.We used white boards to give it a good lighting. It was really fun i really enjoyed working outside with my friends. Next we uploaded  to the computer into photoshop and we learn how to use brushes to make these cool effects.I really liked this project and hope to do more like these.

This project is called studio ligthing and it is was done inside doors.It was really fun .I think it look really cool.Sometimes its hard to keep uo with everything like getting a light meter then camara postition either you want it uo close or far away.Light really bright or medium.I had lots of fun and i enjoy working in this class.I Really liked my picture and hope to do better next time.And to keep learning and improving over time ,learning new things.

this project was fun.We had to take 4 different pictures expressing a way diferent person.and then copying them 4 times each.It was really fun taking pictures dressing up.I hope we do more projects like these.
