Portraits & Self-Portraits Info

Tips

  1.  Alter Your Perspective-completely changing the angle that you shoot from can give your portrait a real wow factor
  2. Play with Eye Contact- looking of camera & looking into frame
  3. Anticipating Behavior & Predicting Relationships Within the Frame-knowing your subjects well enough to be able to anticipate what they are going to do, understanding human nature and being aware of how people usually react in given situations

Senior Bee Barto and teacher Sarah Simmons were interviewed to share theyr experiences. Sarah Simmons and Bee Barto were quoted. I thought the strongest quotes was, "But I wanted to make sure it was a drill and I did see a SWAT team in the hall. It was at that point that I knew it was not a drill."
