Genre Photography

Even though I am focusing on Travel Photography for my genre project, I am also interested in Fashion Photography. Below are some beautiful fashion photography photos!

The contrast between the girl's face and her fan really draws the viewer to this photo. The texture and progression of contrast of her hair adds depth to the photo.

 

The simplicity of this photo and use of depth of field make it interesting. Also, the use of rule of thirds keeps the viewer's eye moving from the subject and the objects in the grass.

 The use of angles in this photo makes it interesting. The contrast between her red hat and black dress emphasize her position. She is bent in an obscure way, making her the center of the photo.

 

This candidness of this photo adds a personal touch and also emphasizes the girl's natural beauty. The grain, which is partially out of focus and partially in focus adds depth to the photo, but also makes her in focus contour stand out. The contrast between her red hair and her blue shirt also makes her the focus of the photo.

Ubiquitous Circles

I was excited to find a shape in different places and shoot it. I realized that circles are everywhere and in some strange places throughout my house. Below are some photographs from my circle adventure.

 I thought that this would be relevant photo during the Holiday season. There are clearly other things going on in the background; however, the color and the placement of the ornament emphasize its shape and center it.

 I have been baking during homework breaks today and thought that this was a fun and relevant picture not only because the bowl in the center of the picture is a circle, but also because there are various circles and parts of circles throughout the photo. How  many can you find? To name a few... there are the circular specks of sprinkles in the cake batter, the smaller bowl next to the bowl in focus, the eggs in a carton, and the bottle of olive oil.

 This is definitely my favorite picture and something that I would consider "artsy" due to its obscure angle and depth of field. I was lying on the floor when I took this photo of our Nerf basketball hoop. The hoop is in focus in the background, while the light and buttons are out of focus. The contrast between the white strings and the orange rim emphasizes the circular manner of this hoop.

 This photo also shot from  an obscure angle plays with the element of color. The area around the doorknob is fairly light, but as you get farther away from it, the color darkens.

 This photo taken of the lids of Jif Peanutbutter, Hershey Hot cocoa mix, and nutella defines my life. I also like how the shelf with the lids consists of mainly circles, while the shelf below it contains rectangular bars.

 This orange picture plays with depth of field. There are three oranges on the table in a pyramid shape and then in the background there is a whole clear bowl of them.

Lastly, I felt the need to shoot a picture of at least one type of ball because they are clearly circular. I like this photo because the color contrast adds to the simplicity of the picture and the ball is in the center of the photo.
