Photoshop Project

For My Photoshop project i decided to use myself as the model.The reason Why i decided to use myself is because i wanted to be creative and experiment with different styling Options such as Make-Up and Maybe props.
But as it was portrait Photography i do not think props are very important at this moment in time.
What is Portrait Photography?

Portrait photography or portraiture is the capture by means of photography of the a shot of the model from head to shoulders.


For example this image above shows what a portrait shoot is and how it should look.

Below is some portraits that i like from various photographers.






The Portraits that i done for my project is called SELF PORTRAIT.
The reason why it is called a self portrait is because it is an representation of an photographer so as i was the photographer its a representation of me.

Below are a few of the images i took myself using these affects on my camera:











I wanted be a little more creative not just take a simply shot thats why i used make-up.I am now working on the images in photoshop this is one example of the 1st image to see the type of look i'm going for.(This image below is not finished)



i used the brush tool to create the affect of make up going down one side of the face. I bought down the brightness of the image so the skin wasn't so bright and highlighted.
