Lyndsay+S.+Portrait+A4



Picture 1: The type of lighting in this picture was studio fill lighting. The compositional technique that was used was Fill the Frame. This is because, the portrait of Twiggy is the only thing in the photograph, and it takes up the whole frame. This photograph is named "Elegance: Twiggy," and was shot by Barry Lategan in 1966. This portrait also happens to be the portrait that started her career. []

Picture 2: The type of lighting in this picture could be either studio lighting or dramatic lighting. It is studio lighting because it is not natural light, or flash. It also can be considered Dramatic lighting because it only shines on the models faces, and doesn't show anything in the background of the portrait; They are the only lit up subjects of the portrait. The compositional techniques that were used were fill the frame, focal point, and framing. It is Fill the Frame because the people involved in the portrait take up the whole frame. The technique of Focal point is used because the way that the lighting is only on the models faces, it makes the observer really focused on them, and they happen to be in the center of the photograph. Therefore, focal point was used. The last technique that was used was framing. The black edges around the models faces act as a frame to some-what frame them as the center of the portrait. This portrait was captured by Cory Smith, and the name is unknown. []

Picture 3: The type of lighting in this portrait was studio fill. The lighting takes up the whole image, there is no part of the portrait that is not lit up. The compositional techniques that were used were leading lines, and point of view. When looking at the portrait, observes eyes are lead from the young girls mouth to the bug my Leading Lines. Point of View is used because it almost seems to tell a story between the girl and the bug. It can seem like the young girl really dislikes the bug, thats why she is looking at it like that. Or, it could maybe also be that the girl treats it almost as her pet, and it playing with it. The photographer of this portrait is CathS. The name of this portrait is also unknown. []

Picture 4: The type of lighting used in this portrait was natural light because the man in the picture is outside. The compositional techniques used were leading lines and fill the frame. The blood and sweat dripping down from his head are an example of how leading lines were used. Fill the Frame was also used because the man in the portrait takes up the entire frame. Also, the little part that the man is not in in the portrait is blurred out. This portrait was taken by the famous photographer, Steve McCurry. []
