For my fourth and final shoot, I decided to create an extension to my third shoot, still photographing my friends. This time, I decided to venture out, in order to capture them in a different environment.

The way they both act in front of me proves that both posing and acting foolish are nothing that would phase friends that are not intimidated or judged by one another. I have tried to capture our boyish ways and what a typical day for us entails.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here I capture Michael, in front of a hard sun, which helps to create a highlighted area on one side of his face, as well as providing light to intensify his eyes.

I felt this portrait was very direct and bold. It took out as one of the best photos from this shoot, for those qualities. His fixed posture, as well as facial expression create a memorable impression, as if he was starring at you. I feel of the boys, Michael most definitely performs the strongest in front of camera, as his facial features are very photogenic, I have I have captured this perfectly here. I think there is a strong essence of beauty, through the face of the subject, alongside the lighting and flowers in the background. Ultimately I am presenting an important figure within my own life, in a way that appears positive to other viewers. Seeing my friend the way I see him and not how you may think of him from a first impression.

Within this photograph we see both Michael and Joe alongside each other. Taken from a higher point of view, that allowed for an interesting perspective as the two of them were forced to look up towards the camera.

The height difference is very apparent between the two characters initially, which gives the impression of an age difference, although the taller one, Joe, is the younger of the two. The pair look unusual together, which to me is exactly what I wanted to capture, how friends are uncaring of these differences, as we see each other for how we treat one another, as apposed to the way we look or dress. This photograph shows me two closest friends, who’re complete opposites, looking towards me in the exact same fashion, therefore at this moment in time, they’re completely equal.
