Major Assignment - Portrait 1.

Portrait 1 - Corporate Portrait


I'm thinking i could arrange to have one of the CIT staff members up in A-Block be my sitter for this task. I could arrange for them to come nicely dressed and well groomed on the day, that way i don't have to try arrange for an outsider to come in to campus, because they are already staff and will be here anyway.


In addition to this, if i'm going to make use of CIT staff, it might also be worth my while keeping my eyes open around campus for any interesting furniture that i can bring into the studio as props for this photoshoot.


Perhaps the gobs could also be included into the shot to replicate plain walls that may direct the eye towards the subject. It might also be possible to bounce light off them or use them to block light in a beneficial way.


hmmm..

I like the body pose of the subject. The
facial expression is terrible, but overall
this could work well to give off a relaxed
yet empowering image.

Gavin Blue Photography.
This is simple, but very affective. The background is
 evident, but supple and helps boost the subject.

I really like the background in this image and wonder if
i can try replicate it with a transparency image over my
light source to project it onto the background.

Photographer unknown.
I am drawn to the pose and framing of this image. It
works nicely and feel it could be something for me
to consider in my own corporate portrait. 

Mark Lobo Photography.
The subject is a little too rigid for my liking, but the
general idea works even if it is very simple.

Richard Whitfield Photography.
Really like the positioning of the subject in
relation to the long plain leather chair and simple
background for ol' Kev.
The female subject has a more complicated use of
lighting and positioning.

Richard Whitfield Photography.
Anice, simple portait.

Richard Whitfield Photography.
I like the natural poses of these two gentlemen.
The props are simple and the framing is interesting.

Richard Whitfield Photography.
This is quite a classic portrait image. I
think it could be worth trying.

Stefan Jannides Photography.
This is trying to step away from classic corporate
portrait by adding an interesting new angle of view.
Not too bad the more you look at it.

Photographer unknown.
Simple head and shoulders photography, with a play
on posing to mix it up a bit. Affective.
