Environmental Photo

I didn't do much to this picture, just added some contrast and brightness, then added a Gaussian blur filter to the background so it wasn't too distracting. 

IB portrait

In this IB portrait, i added contrast and brightened up her face a little. I really like how in my photo she put the scarf around her head to make it look more playful, but her face is more serious than normal. I think the lighting was very good for her.

IB

For this photo, i brightened it and added contrast in photoshop. I tried to get rid of some of the graininess by slightly blurring her face. I also changed the color to a custom black and white in photoshop.

in class studio portraits- Sarah!

During class, we had studio time and took pictures of each other. To portray sarah as a nerd, i gave her some nerd glasses and a book. I brightened the picture in photoshop and added some contrast. The picture was also changed to a custom black and white in photoshop.

For this portrait, i used an ISO of 200 and a cloudy white balance. In photoshop i blurred the background slightly and made the rock and the subject clear. Rembrandt lighting was used on his face. In iphoto, i boosted the color a little. I also copied sticks and trees from the background as a border for my photo.

portrait on the rocks

For this portrait, i used a background that was summery and portrayed a happy mood. I made the ISO 200 and used a custom white balance. I also messed with the curves and boosted the color on iphoto. To make it look more professional, i added a rock background, which i took from the actual photo.

Portraits- Evan and Emily

For this photo, i used an inside light source, and ISO of 400, and a custom white balance. On emily's face is a rembrandt shadow, while evan has a sort of loop shadow. One thing i would change is how high evan's nose shadow covers his eye. I also changed the photo to black and white so the color's wouldnt be distracting.
