In this photography session we learned about different types of portrait lightings. It was really amazing because I got some knowledge about different lighting techniques. My favorite was split because one half of the subjects face had light, and the other half was in shadow. Which stands out.

For the three photographs above I went to different locations to get the correct lighting. Since the aperture doesnt go less than 4.0 I had to search for a location with bright lighting. I took the first picture inside the classroom in front of the black drop beacuse I wanted the ceiling lights to hit the subject. For this picture I put ISO 800, shutter speed 200, and 4.0 f. The second picture was taken inside the cafeteria next to a window. I made the subject put her back against window so the light could hit her back. For this picture i put ISO 200, shutter speed 100, and 4.0 f. For the last picture I went to the auditorium. Since the auditorium had warmer lighting, I had to change the camera setting. I decreased the kelvin and made the color of the picture a little bit cooler. The ISO was 400, shutter speed was 100, and 4.0 f.

Alex Noriega is a landscape photographer. As I was going through his work I noticed that his image gallaries are full of nature, which is really beautiful. His works are unique and it stands out from the rest of the photographers. The above image is one of my favorties because people are able to see the entire view just by looking at the image. He was able to capture the beauty of mother nature perfectly. The composition, lighting, resonant color, and timing of the photograph was great.
