Semester 2!

Portrait task!

Portrait 1:
Model: Amelia
Location: ANU courtyard

As my model has a very romantic appearance, I chose to photograph her around ANU campus as they have nice, open, greenery (and because she attends there and it became a convenient place).
I wanted a soft and feminine image and trees to diffuse the midday light with bokeh effect to separate her from the backdrop. 



50mm, ISO 100, f/1.8 @ 1/2500.

Portrait2:
Model: Bianca
Location: L1 Balcony, Canberra Centre

Bianca has a very warm, bright & energetic personality, and I wanted to express
those aspects in her portrait. I found a balcony where sunset light fell directly on the balcony area, so I decided to shoot Bianca there to have lovely, bright rim lighting.
-Unfortunately on the day, the shoot began later on during  sunset and there wasn't a lot of bright, warm light. That said, the shoot turned out just as well, eve without the intend light.



50mm, ISO400, f/2.8 @ 1/125.
