My pictures

Where : My pictures were taken at Doran’s Bistro I had the chance took take the pictures of the severs, barman and the Chef.

My favourite picture

This is my favorite photo because we can see two people in their working environment. The chef who prepared the dish and finished decorating it before giving it to the client and the waiter who takes the dish so that the client can taste it with pleasure.
You can see by the chef’s facial expression that he is concentrating on delicately finishing his dish and the waiter who takes it delicately. I love the contrast of the lights we can see a lot of shadow on the faces of the two people.Also I enjoy the way I captured the reptition of the lights. At the chef’s level what is interesting is that we focus on his hands, on what he does ,his work . Of course because of the problems this year concerning Covid-19, the individuals must wear masks.

candid and street portraits

The phrase ‘candid portrait’ is often used to refer to the type of portrait taken when the subject is unaware of the photographer. This is usually seen in the genre of street photography. Typically, street photography is about candidly capturing life in public areas. And contrary to its name, street photography does not have to be done on the streets. You can do street photography anywhere. Street photography can focus on people and their behavior in public, therefore also recording people’s history. This involves having to also navigate or negotiate the changing expectations and laws of privacy, security and property. In this sense the street photographer is somewhat similar to a social documentary photographer or a photojournalist.
