Self Portrait and Portraits Part 2

"A mirror or some other reflective surface offers an even easier way to take a self-portrait."

"Have fun with it. Be sexy. Be yourself. Be awesome. Be different. Be creative. Whatever you do, have fun with it. That’s part of the point, after all."

"Use a tripod. Seriously. While it’s possible to get good photos while you’re hanging on to your camera at arms-length, it’s a lot easier if you’ve got the freedom to move around a bit."

Environmental Portrait:

I picked this photo because it has a lot of color and design. I like it because of the flowers everywhere and the red lighting in the background.

I picked this photo because it has some color but the main reason i picked it was because of the background. I like it because the bricks make a cool diagonal shape that kind of distracts from the man.

Photography Self Portrait:

I picked this photo because of the bright uplifting colors. I like the color of the umbrella and the country side.

I picked this photo because of the lighting and the color of the shoes. I like the way it sparkles/shines on the tip of the shoe. It looks really cool. 

Casual Portrait:

I picked this photo because of the way its black and white. I like the way it doesn't have color and it shows detail and shadow.

I picked this photo because i of how you can see the baby in the mirror. It shows a different angle of the baby.  I like the way the background is blurred to show emphasis on the baby.

I will shoot a picture of myself obviously, since this is will be a self portrait assignment. I will shoot somewhere where there aren't many people, and they're isn't a lot of things on the wall to distract from the photo. To make the shot successful i will make sure there aren't a lot of distractions, i will make sure to take more than one photo. I will make sure to keep the camera still and in focus. I will try  to use more than one rule of photography.
