After going to the duck pond, I learned that lighting can really have an impact on the subject in a photo. With the right lighting, different moods can be brought about and can change how the audience views the image. We used a shot list to decide on which poses each person should do. Trey preferred the more serious poses, so we decided to shoot him doing those. I liked how each pose showed a different side of Trey. One where he is relaxed, another where he is serious, and the other is of him smiling. The poses allowed for each person to show different emotion, along with different amounts of body exposure. The reflector also allowed for the mood to alter. I liked the reflector because it allowed for the image to have really nice lighting in dark places, such as under a tree or under shade. The reflector allowed for my group to use light to brighten up the subject and give a nice color to the subject's skin tone. I retouched Trey's skin a little bit due to having facial hair and an uneven skin tone. I did this by using the surface blur edit to make his skin more smooth, but I also added noise to not make Trey look unrealistic. I set the noise at 2.5 for the images. Positions include fist under the chin, back and back leg up against a tree, and a head half turned looking over their shoulder. Some careers that use portrait photography are wedding photographers, commercial photographers for makeup or skin products, and studio photographers. Large companies will hire portrait photographers for advertisement and some families will hire for wedding portraits. Whether a large corporation for advertisement or a small town family for home pictures, anyone and everyone can hire a portrait photographer. Professional Portrait Photographers tend to make between $75-$250 an hour.
