Portrait Tips

1. Frame Your Subject

2. Play With Backgrounds

3. Introduce Movement

Enviromental Portrait


The wide range of this photo and the busy objects of the background really interested me. I love how the background sort of tells a tale about the subject. 


The simplicity is beautiful. The details are sharp and clear which makes the subject and her simple background very beautiful.

Photography Self Portrait


I LOVE self portrait photography. It's always unique and artistic in some way- even surreal or magical effects can come out from. I really saw that in this one a lot. The mood is so intriguing.


Framing is one of my favorite photography elements. How this photo captured the subject through the mirror was really unique and also quite beautiful.

Casual Portrait 


There weren't a lot of photos that were casual portrait that I really liked, but I did enjoy looking at this one. The books (I LOVE BOOKS <3) in the background add lines and color while making the subject pop a bit. 


I REALLY love this one. Using the rule of thirds, the subject is captured and framed fully in a moody way. Being an old photo most-likely from the border around it and the coloring, this mood almost has a vintage, intelligent feel to it!
