Kelly+S+Portarits



For my photographers I chose to use Greg Smith's work (middle), Shawn Chin's (right), and Joshua Weiner (left).

Each of these photographers I chose have their own unique style. Each of these Photographers use natural light, but different types. Greg uses a natural out side light, while the other two use more available lights. Joshua's picture uses a rule of thirds while Shawn's uses a fill the frame effect, and Greg's uses a level horizon/ point of view.

Greg Smiths work does very well in capturing his personality and maybe even how he felt at the time when he was shooting the picture. His style has its own unique perspective, while you are drawn to him in the picture you are also drawn to everything going on in the back round. The flowers in the picture act almost as leading lines drawing your eye to the back round of the picture of the misty sky and backround.

On the other hand Joshua Weiner's work has more of a realistic feel and a true " this is how it is" feeling. You get the true view of him in his natural state. also the black and white color of the photo adds to the effect of a softer feel of it.

In Shawn Chin's work you have the same softer black and white feel but mixed with a little play on dementions. At first in the picture your eyes are drawn to the pebble in which his face is reflected upside down, then further back your eye is lead to the photographer himself. The way He fills the frame also adds another effect of being up close and personal, a feeling you would not get if the picture was taken from a farther distance.
