For each of these photo's I used the Canon Rebel t1i. Depending on the lighting I adjusted the apparture and shutter speed to make sure each picture wasn't to light or dark. For this portrait I used two lights. I used one light on each side. The light on the right side of her face is more noticeable because it was placed closer to her face. The one on the left was placed above her head and slightly more to the middle to help decrease the shadows from her eyes and nose.

Portrait 2
In this picture I also used the Canon Rebel T1i. I placed one light on the left side of her face and one but slightly to the right. I then was using the light reflector to angle more light onto her forehead. The person who moved the light reflector created wind and I put it on a small shutter speed in order to capture the moment and have all her hair up in the air.

In this picture I also used the Canon Rebel T1i. I placed lights on the right and left side in order to create an even amount of light. The light on the right side was further away in order to dim the light on the right side. I also enjoy her facial expressions.

Inside / Outside Lighting
This Project involved Inside and Outside lighting. To create the inside lighting on the top of his forhead, I simply asked him to stand under a light. The light was located inside in the english halway. I then used the light from behing him coming from outside. I used the silver reflector to refelect the light coming from outside onto his face. The light used from the sun also lights up the back of his head. Although you cannot see this light, you can see a bit of it coming over his shoulder or off of the side of his face or his head. Using inside and outside light I was able to mix light colours and contrasts to creat a nicer light. I also used where the light was coming from to my advantage. The light above i used so there was no shadow on his forhead. I then angled the reflector up to create less shadow under his eyes. Overall using both types of light made the picture look and feel more real.

Back to the Renaissance
This painting is from the Renaissance. The renaissance is from the 14th to 17th century.The original painting is of Napolean Bonaparte. Napolean was an early explorer. He was a general of a french army. The camera I chose to use is the Canon Rebel, I shot at a shutter speed of 50 because I wanted to be able to get in as much light as possible. I looked at the lighting of the original then after multiple trials I finally got the correct lighting. I moved the lights up and down to change the shadow on his forehead. I also moved the lights further and closer to Tabe's face to create a different lighting. The original picture has more light on the right side of his face so I also did this to Tabe's face to make it look more alike. I found this image in an art history book. Once i found this pictrue it interested me. The lighting on his face created little shadow from his nose. I though the lighting would be a challange to recreate. I then took the final picture and cropped his face into it. I changed the contrast and saturation to make the colour of the skin the same. I then shrunk his face and cropped out his body, to ensure it looked like it was his actual face.

Each picture a photographer takes shows how they see the world. The project was to take a picture for each letter in your first and last name. The final picture above is where I've seen each of the letters in my name in the environment. After taking each picture I put them all together to create a final product. Overall there were many places I could have found any of the letters in my name but this is the way I see it. I see the letters in places that would be unexpected. For instance the "E" was taken on the end of a bike rack. Most people would not see the "E" in this place but personally I think it makes the picture more interesting because its not a typical place you would see it. Another letter I found in an unsuspected place was the "A" and the "C". I also think that by using different lighting you can create something that changes the whole feeling of the picture. For example the "N" would have looked completely different if taken from another angle. I took it slightly from the side, this made each part of the letter stand out more than if it was simply taken from the front. Every photographer has a different point of view. If any other person had the same task with my name, each letter would be seen different.
