The first assignment for Photography 1 didn't have many requirements other than that we had to use extremes of the camera functions for shutter speed, aperture, and ISO. I had decided that I have missed shooting portraits. I searched for a friend who could give me two hours of their time so that I could finally shoot this assignment. I went to the woods near my house with my friend and (with a slow and bumpy start) began shooting some of the categories. I love portraits because they capture emotions. When I hold a camera up to the average person, they get nervous and don't know what to do. I like the shyness people get in front of the lens. A photo where a person looks vulnerable and nervous isn't always a bad thing in my opinion. I liked the top photo in particular because my friend looks happy as well as shy, which you can see in the lack of eye contact she makes with my camera.
