Portraits

Portrait Eyes

Before this assignment, I thought portraits were just pictures of people looking into the camera, little did i know there were multiple types of portraits. This assignment was to take two different types of portraits, portrait eyes and environmental portraits. Portrait eye pictures are meant to tell a story through the window to the soul. We're meant to capture what we think they represent themselves as. A portrait eye picture should have the person looking straight into the camera and fill up most of the picture or frame. An environmental portrait is a portrait where the person is in their environment and living their daily lives. In the environmental pictures I took, it shows that they’re just surrounded by an environment they’re usually exposed to (school).
