HAMPTONNE PORTRAITS

November 4, 2021 Joshua L Leave a comment

During the visit to hamptonne farm, we took portrait photos of photographer Tom Kennedys wife. He spoke to us on how to only use a natural light source to take the photos, as it makes them look very effective

Example of photographer Tom Kennedys picture’s, using a natural light source

Using Lightroom I selected the best photos I took using the flagging system. The photos that I did not select were too dark in my opinion. I also edited certain photos to make them look more effective.

one of the best portraits taken, I believe this didn’t need editing.

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is image-49-edited-1024x576.png — before and after of an edited portrait, the decrease in contrast made the light from the window look brighter and increased the effectiveness of the portrait.

Before and after of another photo taken, I made it black and white as I believe it makes it look more effective

I like this photo because of soft natural light in the back, highlighting the dust made by the ped. all of this leads to the bright colours in the centre of the image.

For my environment portraits I chose to shoot a moped doing donut.

on this image I increased the highlights and lowered the shadows to bring out the colours in the green leaves and the person in the centre of the image.

this photo i increased this photo the contrast and decreased the highlights to bring out the deep blues and ther purple sun rays. i liked the lit dust in the bottom of the image that bring your eye up the main image.

this was the before for the image before

*This image of the coast line of Gorey with a hiker to the side of the image*.

Gorey has a lot of heritage, to compliment this I put the image in black and white.

Walker Evans

Research –

Evans showed interest in photography during a trip through Europe in the late 1920s.
His first photos were published in the 1930s.
He also helped to publish a book called “Let us now praise famous men” with the author James Agee.

Darren Harvey-Regan

Research –

Many of his photos were inspired by the work of Wallace Evans “Beauties of the common tool”.
He has taken part in many solo and joint exhibitions.

Comparison –

Walker evans beauties of the common tool 01 — I think that this picture from Walker Evans photoshoot called “Beauties of the common tool” in 1955 is a good example of a still life object photo. This is due to the plain background which contrasts the tool as it is quite dark. This makes the finer details of the scissors stand out well which due to the highlights which also make them more defined from the way the lighting has fallen on it.

My Photos

Here are the different set ups which we used in the studio to create our photos –

Here are photos that I have taken of vintage objects in various ways and put into adobe Lightroom, selecting my favourites to present.

Editing

Here I edited some photos on Adobe Lightroom so that I could use them to create a piece of work which is similar to the work of Wallace Evans and Harvey-Reagans “Beauties of the common tool”.
