Dorothea Lange Final

This was my last cohesive batch trying to imitate Dorothea Lange's style. All of the subjects are very focused on the activities that they were doing.

This was the last time I tried to imitate Dorothea Lange's style of documenting daily life. I photographed my family and also friends at school.

Dorothea Lange 2

Once again, I tried to imitate Dorothea Lange's style by documenting people doing daily life activities. I tried to take photographs of people from school who were having a good time or were really focused on what they were doing.

Dorothea Lange Inspiration Pictures

For this project, I tried to imitate Dorothea Lange's style of capturing people while doing an activity. Dorothea Lange photographed people while doing an activity or people facing a struggle; she was a photojournalist. Dorothea's pictures were candid, and so I tried to photograph art classes, friends and my family doing daily life activities.

Portraits

For this assignment, we had to take pictures of people that had a relaxed expression. They weren't smiling, or doing any facial expressions. We didn't use props and we used a white background. This assignment was inspired by the photographer; Richard Avedon. He used this same technique to show the vulnerability of the model.

Narrative Images

For this assignment, I tried experimenting with new figures and new angles. I tried out taking pictures in both black and white.

Narrative Pictures

For this assignment I tried taking pictures of stories that seemed realistic. I tried taking the figures up close and the background distant. I noticed that taking the picture from a low angle was the most successful.I experimented with both color and black and white.

Rule of Thirds

For this assignment, I tried to capture using the rule of thirds. The rule of thirds, is when the image is divided into three equal parts. The rule of thirds is used to create balance.

depth staging

For this assignment, I tried taking pictures of depth. I did this by closing up on an object and the background would be distant; you can see the space between the two objects.
