I used the light from outside to backlight thr portrait. I like the lighting on the portrait.

I think the lighting for this photograph is a little too bright, but still gives a nice effect.

Project 1: Portrait, scale and setting

The brief for this project was to take four scales of a portrait in one session. The four scales are face cropped in close, head and shoulders, torso and a full length portrait.

Photograph 1: Face cropped in close




Photograph 2: Head and shoulders



Photograph 3: Torso

Photograph 4: Full length portrait

I think the portrait session went well. There where some really good expressions on the subjects face. I  kept the session as relaxed as possible.
