Portrait,Music and Creative Photography I have taken

Creative Photography.

Some Photographs that I have taken with Friends practising different creative ways of portrait photography. I changed a lot to black and white images that I have also edited in photoshop. These photographs were taken using my Canon Power shot S3 IS and a few taken using my mobile phone camera.

I wanted to try some shots of my model blowing bubbles. I had to use a faster shutter speed for this but I think it came out well and I like the dark background that makes my model's face stand out and captures the bubbles well. I also like the small depth of field in this photo.

A friends wedding that I attended. In the first photo taken just after the ceremony I tried to show a natural image of them both. The one below I changed to a black and white photo using photoshop.

These two Images of Myself were also inspired by the singer Paloma Faith Photos taken again by Anthony Saul. using a Vintage look I created on myself, I edited them both in Photo shop to Black and white and changed the Exposure, I then put make up on and used the smudge effect to create a colourful background to make myself stand out which I added myself to put my own take on them.

A image I took of myself on a mobile phone camera and edited to a black and white and change the exposer. I used ripped up tights to put over my face.

This image was of my neighbour's child who was looking through my mirror I liked her expresstion her face  so I asked her to hold it while I got my camera out. I changed it again in photoshop I thought it would make her look as though she was scared at what she was seeing in the mirror and it would look better as a black and white with a silhouette look about her face. The shadow of white light at the top of the photo was because of the light that was on next to her but it allowed me to get better shadows on her face.
I couldn't find a way to get rid of this which I think would look better if it wasn't there.

same person again, another facial expresston I liked. This was created by the use of make up on her face and then edited to black and white.

One of me again taken on a Mobile phone camera, using ripped tights over my face and hair extenstions. I messed around with the phone settings and came up with this.

I wanted to try some reflection photography so by using a silver foil balloon I got my model to stand next to it and hold it up and look into it. I decided a close up shot would look good and I liked the effect the balloon as the head and body become distorted.

These two photos above were taken as a bit of fun. Dressing the model up and using a wig and some make up I positioned her to capture this scary look. The first image was taken as if she was behind some bars which actually were the stair banister. I prefer the second shot to the first though, as the stair banister looked too bright when I edited it in photoshop. In the second photo I liked the model's wild scary expression.
