Lets be honest you probably need a picture for that assignment

Portraits with Infinite Background

For this assignment we had to take photos of people and try to make it look like there was almost no background, just white. We used lights on either side of the person and angled them towards the back ground. We also had to use shutter speed to get the lighting right. I found that it worked best when the lights hit the back ground and a small portion of the person around their waist. For one of the cameras the shutter speed 1/13 worked best and for the other shutter speed 1/25 was the best. It was hard not to get too many shadows from the subject and the lighting just right. It didn’t work when we tried to use one light. It was too unbalanced. Here are the best photos.
