So I'm back again, this time taking the course Photography 1:People and Place. I've decided this will be the best option for me this year as I've been asked to do a couple of wedding shoots this summer and friends and family have started asking me to take portraits, so this fitted in well with where my skills are taking me, I'm hoping I can learn much more to add to my craft and start producing much higher quality images. After looking back over my first course from my first to last assignment I can really see the difference in my shots!
I've already done a few portrait sittings at the end of last year, and I must say it's quite a challenge being creative with poses and making your subject feel at ease with you and the camera. It's also very important to pick a setting or background that compliments them too. Here are just a few examples of what I've been up to:
There have been some great images so far just through trial and error but I’m really hoping to up my game by the end of this course! Wish me luck!
