Portrait: Stranger

It was very weird asking people to take pictures of them. The first guy I asked to take a picture of thought I wanted to buy something from his bake sale. The girl I asked to take a picture of was with a friends and I think I offended her friend because I only asked the one girl. These two were very friendly about it though. I asked another girl and she said no, and it was a very awkward time for both of us. I like how the pictures turned out, but if I were to do this again, I think I would wait until its warmer out, so I can take pictures of people who are outside.

Portrait: Friend

I think taking pictures of people you know is pretty easy. I took many pictures and asked her opinion on the places and poses she did. I made sure she was comfortable and not looking directly at the sun. I was taking some pictures purposefully knowing I’d want them in black and white and other not-knowing if they’d be better in black and white or color. It didn’t take much time and I am very happy with how the pictures turned out.
