For this shoot i focused my photographs on people in a work environment. I wanted to capture photographs of people doing manual jobs showing them in action but still focus on them and their expression to whether they are happy, sad and any other emotions they might have to their working environment. I will edit these photos so that they are black and white to stop the colour taking away from the portrait

My First shoot is at the CCA Art Gallery, because my friend, called Victoria loves art and is an extremely good artist. I didn’t have much time in the art gallery so  I used the few images that I took and edited them a few times to get more photos.  I took photos like this because I wanted to create an artistic image so go with the character of the subject and the environment.

The Kelvin Scale is a more intricate way to edit the white balance on your camera. It is simply a unit of measurement for temperature and in photography we most often use it to measure the color temperature of light sources. The temperature scale most often used in photography ranges from about 2000K (K=Kelvin) to 9000K.

White balance allows you to edit the  lighting of your image as you are in the field doing a photo shoot. You can use the white balance settings on your camera to make the colours in your image more balanced or simply for bringing out colours in the image. For example, if you are in a shaded location you can change the white balance to the shady option. In this experimental shoot i took photos using all the white balance tones from direct sunlight to incandescent. My contact sheets show how these settings can change the tone of the image.
