Portrat report part 1


So this assignment we had to read and as well as take a picture of some one in natural lighting. Part 1 will be about my reflection about the article we read about in photography. A photographer by the name Manjari Sharma helps explain the difference between the topics of a Portrait picture and a Snapshot picture. she says "The difference between a snapshot and a portrait cannot be said in one word, because there are many differences. For one, a snapshot is an "in the moment thing". A portrait on the other hand is much more sensual, and much more connected." To me that comes of as with a snapshot it could come cross as a natural looking picture no pose just caught in the moment, the normal moments you see when your just going along with your day. Then theirs the "Portrait" look when you pose and you change your natural looks into a more posed look. Ironically sometimes a natural look may look posed and planned out but naturally in my opinion it seems like some times people just naturally pose when working or just being to themselves.
