Why are you taking intro to digital photo?
I have always been asked "How did your parents meet?" because my mother is Puerto Rican who grew up in Rochester N. Y. and my dad is Australian. My answer is "Kodak". My Mom was working there as a secretary when my Dad was offered a job out of college to work for Kodak in Australia. After a while they asked him if he was interested in going on assignment in America. They sent him to Rochester N.Y. where he met my mom. They have now been married for 27 years and my dad's been with Kodak for 33. This is why I have always loved photography. In a way it is responsible for my very existence. In high school I was able to take my first digital photography class and loved it. Because of this I wanted to take this course as a way to build on my knowledge and ability as a photographer.
Strengths:
ReplyDelete1. The composition is very strong for all of them; every model is clearly relaxed, I love how clearly comfortable they feel.
2. I love your use of various different props, and backgrounds. None of the poses look forced, and everything flows really well when you look at everything together.
Weakness:
1. There's a little bit of repetitive motion, especially with the green umbrella in the printed pictures; maybe taking one out would've been beneficial to the overall composition to add a little variety.
2. Some graininess on the printed images, but ultimately doesn't take away too much from the overall quality.
Strengths:
ReplyDelete1. I love the humor in this body of work. The photos you chose really show the happiness and beauty in each of your models.
2. The colors you incorporated go really well together.
Weakness:
1. I would try to switch up the props used in your photos
2. Some of your photos either aren't entirely in focus or they were printed on the wrong piece of paper
Strengths
ReplyDelete- Really enjoy the theme of the colors and how the models clothing goes with the props and backdrops. the color scheme of the photos was very well done
- the expression and movement the models are doing are very well incorporated
Critiques
-The prints have a slightly grainy look to them
-maybe try some different angles the camera could have been pointing at the subject or having the subject move instead of being directly in front of the camera
