Portrait Photography - Symmetry.


This photograph also represents symmetry. I applied a blur filter to the background and used the ‘History Brush’ to remove it from the girl at the centre of the image. I did this because it makes her then the focus point of my image and really make the overall photo look more symmetrical.

With this image I edited it into black and white, increased the brightness and contrast. Then I moved on to applying a filter. I used the ‘Noise’ filter.  I then used the ‘History Brush’ to take the affect off of the girl at the centre of the image.

I started off by changing the photographs adjustments into black and white. I then went into filters and added blurred affect to the image. I used the ‘Lens Blur.’ After this I wanted add more emphasis onto my camera in the photograph so I used the ‘History Brush’ to then remove the blurred affect on just the camera, making it the focus point of my image.

With this photograph I started off by cropping out a lot of the background. I then resized the image to make it larger. I then used the lasso tool to surround the hand. I then filled in the brown background with the pain tool in black. Once the background was all black I put the photograph into black and white. I used the burn tool to make the line between the hand and background blend. I then finished off by brightening the image.

With this photograph I cropped it to make the shoes and legs the main focus of the photograph. I did this by using the ‘Rule of Thirds’. I also edited my photograph into black and white to match my Black and White Concept. I did this by using the Infrared filter. This also then made the legs and shoes even more prominent. I then increased the brightness slightly and the contrast.
