Category: Portraits

This project is taking portraits with dark backgrounds.  We had to make sure the person was in front of the light so their were no shadows on the board. We also had to edit the post by making the background darker and the figure (person) darker. One challenge I had was making sure there were no shadows on the person, also making sure the adjustments on the camera weren’t letting in too much light, thus ruining the picture. One thing that I found easy was making the background darker through the Photoshop app. This was easy because all we had to do is use the curved tool to darken the background and lighten the figure. In conclusion this project had some challenges but overall was very simple.

In this project each person in our group got a photo taken of them with a pure white background. This was challenging for me because we had to make sure that the people stood in front of the light so there were no shadows. Another hard part was to make the quality good so we needed to change the setting on our cameras to let more light into the lens. A very easy part of the project was editing the photos in the Photoshop app. This was easy because all we had to do was put the photo in and go to the curve feature then adjust the light so that the shadows fade into the white background.
