hasselblad portraiture project reserach

More pleased with the outcome of these negs than the other two.I am pleased with the way I've structured the format of these photographs.The background adds emphasis and mood to the foregrounds subject.

Final portraiture project prints

Mary-Ellen Mark Portraiture

When thinking about creating a series of  of portraits my first thought is to create image of the subject in a straight forward up and down shot.As i began to research artists there can be a lot more thought and creativity put into it , giving the subject in the image a motive or a concept a kind of deeper meaning.Like the portrait above i think there is a hidden or fairly obvious concept within, depending on the viewer . For me the image has a good breathing space because it simply made me think on the connections between the subject and the subjects in the photo frame.
