The photography home of the Lakelands Park Falcons.
I took the pictures by using a white background and pointing a light at the person. I made sure there wasn’t a shadow outlining the person. Using the light worked but some of the pictures turned out too light. Over all this project was easy and fun. The rest of my pictures are here.
For this project I had to take pictures of myself and people in my group. I had to mess with the ISO, Shutter speed and F-stop. I had to make the camera settings so that the background is completely white. A iso of 800, A shutter speed of 80 and a f-stop of 7.7 seemed to work the best A low shutter speed and a low f-stop seemed to work but not as good as the other set of settings.
You can find my pictures Below.
For the photos we all used the plain white background and took photos of everybody, then for editing I used photo shop to crop it,change the colors,etc. and to add my logo I used Fireworks. Taking photos in front of the other side of the white background worked because you didn’t have shadows but it was clear,from the natural lighting of outside.

The process we used to take our photos was that we had to get the perfect lighting for the white background. You had to get in front of the lights. We also messed around with the ISO, Shutter Speed, and F-Stop. For editing the photos, we used photo shop to make the photos look better. At first, we didn’t edit correctly, but then we figured out how to do it.

This assignment was pretty unique from the other projects. In this one, we had to take a picture of a person with a white background then edit the photo via photo shop. This makes the background look infinite or like there’s nothing there. To take a picture, we had to use the manual setting and take in the perfect amount of lighting and quality using ISO and shutter speed. Then we took the photo to photo shop, made the background lighter, the person a little darker, crop out the leftover shadows, and vola. The pictures turned out perfect and it worked really well. It took a while to edit all our photos however, and we needed to fix many mistakes along the way, but it’s all good now.
For this project I had to change the ISO, Shutter speed, and the F-stop of the camera to create a background that looks infinite. Also,we had to mess with the photo in Photoshop to make the background look more “Infinite”. What worked was placing the light source behind the object so it doesn’t create shadows. What didn’t work was when someone was behind the background and it created a shadow. See the rest of my portraits here
To take the portraits we had to use a white background and I needed to use Photoshop to help make the background whiter. What worked was using good natural lighting and what didn’t work was using a lots of normal lighting. Link Here
The process of taking these photos consist of taking a portrait using different camera settings in front of a white background. After we took our photos, we went to photo shop to edit them. In photo shop, we could change the colors of the photos, and we can change the lighting of the photos. Then, after I had the edited photos, I went to fireworks to add my logo. The lighting worked for this assignment. We found out that natural lighting coming from outside, was the best lighting to use for this project. However, sometimes the settings wouldn’t work. We had to learn to adjust the camera settings everyday so that you could get the effect of having an infinite background. Click here to see the rest of our group photos, here.
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.
