Portrait

For the portrait project I will be photographing people as if they were living in Hollywood during the 50's. In studio I will be photographing Knox, Harper, and Emily wearing black dresses, pearls, fur wraps and putting their hair up in 50's styles trying to make them look like Hollywood stars in the 50's. I will take these photos on a black background as I have seen many photos be taken on a black background when I have researched. The black background will help keep the photos simple yet complex making the models look sophisticated, it will also add to the time period. I will shoot with a lower camera angle to give the model more attitude. For the lighting I will place the brightest part of the light in the center of the face attaching panels to the side of the light to create deeps shadows on the cheeks making sure the lights aren't flooding all over the place. My goal with the lighting is to create deep shadows on the face while completely blending the background. I want the photographs main attention to be on the model when they are looked at. For my outside photos I want to try my best to place my models in settings that resemble Hollywood in the 50's. Since my in studio photos will be darker with the lighting I want to make the out of studio photos brighter and less serious.
