Gray-Trier+Portrait



[|Julia Margaret Cameron: Working Methods]

For this image Julia Margaret Cameron used outside lighting it seemed on a cloudy day. For most of Julia photographs she had the subject fill the frame. The artist made sure to capture the feeling the person in the photograph to tell the observer how they were feeling. Her photographs showed me how to get the feeling of the person in the photo.



[|IMOGEN CUNNINGHAM TRUST]

Imogen Cunningham used available lighting. For this image she had focal point and fill the frame. Imogen focused more on the body language the facial features. Her photographs showed me to not always focus on just the face.



[|The Richard Avedon Foundation]

Richard Avedon used studio lighting in his photos. For most of his images had his subjects fill the frame. As well as filling the frame he made sure to have nothing going on in the background to make sure people did not get distracted. The same as Julia, Richard showed me to focus on facial features to get the how the subject was feeling.
