My favorite Cover is #32 Vogue its very formal and a good self-portriat photo. Its sexy but sophisticated. Her pose is nice becuase its her back and she is facing to the left. The background is simple perfect for the cover.

Magazine Cover Introduction:

1. Emotionally irresistible (that’s the image’s appeal)
2. Intellectually stimulating, interesting
3. Arousing curiosity (that’s to pull the casual glancer in)
4.  Worth the investment of money and time (that’s the “What’s in it for me?”)
5. The screen is the wrong size, no matter how big it is. You can’t see it intimately as if it were in your hands

self-portraits and portraits part 2

Tip 1. Think about your motivation and emotions: Blankly staring at the camera rarely gets good results. Be silly, don’t be afraid to over-act. The worst that can happen is that you fill up your memory card with useless photos; but you might also find yourself with a proper gold-nugget of a self portrait.

Tip 2. Have fun with it. Be sexy. Be yourself. Be awesome. Be different. Be creative. Whatever you do, have fun with it. That’s part of the point, after all.

Tip 3. Use props! Are you a dad and a rocker? Bring your kid and your guitar. Are you a photographer? Add camera gear. Painter? Paint . You get the idea.

This is my favorite environmental portrait because the background of pumpkings make it look good and the kid is adorable.


This is another one of my favorite environmental photos because the flowers and the dry grass behind.

This is my favorite casual portrait becausethe little girl is just laying in her bed smileing with a apple in her hand. Its simple but good for a casual portrait.

This is another of my favorite casual portraits because the kid is sitting on the chair caml with his pacifier in his mouth.
This is my favorite self portrait because of the creativity and art it shows the picture in her hand keeps her going in real life. She used another photo in her face to put over hers.

This is another one of my favorite self portriat picture because they made into a colleague. Different hairstyles different hair.

Iam going to be shooting with Jaelene , and we are going to be shooting outside in the courtyard or by a tree.
iam going to make this shot succesfull by using the rules of photography, and using creativity.

Shortlist Warm Up

This is my favorite lanscape photo because the water looks amazing it makes me feel like iam there. It also uses the rules of photography simplicity, framing, lines, and balance.
This is my favorite travel photo because the stairs in the photo make it seem like its leading you to a new adventure as traveling does too.
This is my favorite fashion photo because its simple but classy and it makes it look unique just like fashion should be.
This is my favorite family & friendship photo because it shows two lady's and the babygirl beside her to protect her . meanwhile she looks up at them wondering so many stuff she doesnt quite yet understand.

This is my favorite portrait because the girl in the picture looks so calm like the ocean does . The wind is blowing her hair like the wind blows the waves.
My favorite photo of documentary is this one above. because these childrens look at the window looking for freedom, for a future out of that home.

This is my favorite garden & plants photo because the orange flowers make the dark watery background so bright and a life. The effects in this picture are wonderful.


This is my favorite wild life photo because the way the eye looks at the world makes it look incredible. The fly right on top of the eye makes it even better.


This is my favorite creative photo because with him standing on the wire with ballons is pretty cool. You can see the ballons reflecting in the sky and the sun shining bright.
