Landscape Assignment

Produce 6 landscape images that emphasize lighting to convey a sense of place and mood. Although you may include people and man-made structures in your photos, do not allow these elements to become the main subjects of your photographs.

Make lots of exposures at each location. Experiment with depth of field, angle of view, focal length, etc. so as to get several variations from which to choose. Your photos should be designed to convey the spatial qualities of the location, so there will be no need to shoot details or close-ups.

It is recommended that you scout each location first, taking notes on the desired lighting and time of the day best for that location. Then, head out early the next day to set up and wait for hat light to paint your scene.

·       Light the still-life using window or artificial light; either way, use reflector cards to add fill light into the shadow areas.

Create a website on WIX.COM

I will go over more details with you on Tuesday and Thursday but if you would like to get started on it before then, use that website. Consider what you did and did not like from the website reviews when creating your website.

Whatever your URL and Website name is, make sure it ties to YOU and is something unique! Once you create this, it will be used for everything else you do for your photography business such as business cards, leave behinds, etc.
