Before



Time period:late 1800s-early 1900s
Location:Ohio 
Subjects: archetypal Pictorialist 

What makes this photographer unique: He photographed things that felt personal and because he had limited funds and time to take photographs, he staged each of his photographs down to the smallest details. 

Why did you choose this photographer?: his work is incredibly detailed and though it appears simple, the reality is they are difficult photographs to imitate because of his planning and precision. 

How did the photographer inspire you?: I found different new ways to photograph people in a way that can tell a story and incorporate nature without it becoming too much of a landscape photograph. 

How did this change while working on the project?: The only thing that changed was the way I started to control light source the pictures to highlight the subject better.

Third Photography Assignment-My Third Rule


Rule of Composition: Cropping 
The picture was taken then cropped to focus more on the eyes and the reflections that are shown in the eyes. 




Rules:
  1. Perspective
  2. Symmetry
  3. Cropping

Second Photo Assignment- My Second Rule



Rule of Composition: Symmetry
The photo was taken with the symmetry of the two doors and the cylinders on top of the building in mind and being offset by the cart and the tree that only appear on the left of the photo.

First Photo Assignment-My First Rule




Rule of Composition: Perspective

This picture was taken from the ground to give a different perspective of a person from what is usually seen when you look at them at eye level.
