Yesterday, I was back at the park again for my photography project. I approach strangers and ask if I can take a couple of free portraits of them. I met this girl with a really cool style, and I asked her if she'd like to participate. She was so happy to say yes and we started to shoot photos:
What really caught my attention was her beanie and her super cool urban style. You don't see many girls dressed like that in my city, so I knew we could get some really cool shots!
I started by taking a couple of full-body shots of her so that her outfit would show up. Then, I wanted to get some shots of her sitting on a tree for a different background.
This girl was so confident in front of the camera! I didn't even have to give her any direction for the poses. She was a natural.
And finally, I wanted to get some close-up shots of her face. I used some out-of-focus leaves from the trees in the foreground and background to create a depth-of-field effect that I think looks really cool!

One of my photography techniques is to capture a wide shot, a medium shot, and a close-up shot. This variety of perspectives allows me to create more engaging and well-rounded portraits, as we did in this impromptu photoshoot!
This project has been a great opportunity for me to practice and refine my portrait photography skills. I'm really starting to see the improvements in my work!
I hope you enjoy these photos as much as we did.
Thank you for watching!
