Environmental Portraits

For my first indoor photoshoot of environmental portraits, I photographed my dad in his garage. He has worked there for around 27 years and the setting was very natural for him. The lighting in the garage is quite low in most areas so this became a problem I had to consider.

For my second photoshoot, I went to a gym/WCB centre in town called ‘The Rock’. Here, I am planning to photograph Tommy, a personal trainer with his boss and owner of the gym. Whilst I was there, Tommy was training with a customer who was happy to let me take photos of them training. The reasoning for this was because I went to the gym myself for a fair few months and knew that Tommy and Craig (the owner) wouldn’t mind if I asked to take photos of them.

For my third and final photoshoot, I photographed Susie, a hairdresser in the ‘Style’ salon, also in town. I had just had my hair cut and asked if she was happy to be photographed for my coursework. She had a customer booked in after myself so I only had 2 minutes to get what I could.
