Black Portrait Background

For this project we had to take pictures with a real camera against a solid black background without leaving any shadow or seeing any flash from the light. My group would hold up lights on just the model’s face so there wouldn’t be light on the background only on the face.  After we uploaded all our pictures so we could edit them on photo shop. We edited them so that there was no light on the background and to make it black and white if needed. Editing the photos was easy because I now have more experience with photo shop and the tools on it. It was a challenge taking a picture without the light reflecting on the background because it required a lot of effort from the person holding the light.  Click to HERE see more photos!
