For these photos I took pictures of different parties that I went to previously and selected some that I could use in my final photobook. All of these images are snapshots and were taken quickly with me not thinking about taking the photo and what the final result would be. I have edited these images in a way where the colour is bright and vibrant with lots of contrast.
This photo I am planning to use as the front page of my photobook. This is because it is a subtle picture without any strong character or thing catching your eye, everything in the image is blue so there is nothing standing out and catching your eye so it is a subtle way to start off the book.
These images I have paired together because they were taken at the same party and the lighting is originally very similar as they both have a yellowish tint and red and green disco lights in the background. I edited these so that there was a darker tint and increased contrast with the people and the background
These images were also taken in the same night. I have chosen to put these two together because the lighting is dark with strong colours in both images. I have increased both the vibrance, saturation and clarity of both these images so that they are really stand out a lot and show a lot of exposure within the image.
These images are taken of my friends at a party. The main focus in these images is my friend in the pink dress. She is in all three photos and they all show the different people she has been talking and dancing with, showing the very social aspect of a party. I haven’t edited these images much apart from the blurring with the strong blur effect on Lightroom and I made the images look darker but with more contrast and a warmer tone with the tint and also a filter on the first photo. For one of these images I used AI on Lightroom to remove a water bottle and replaced it with a metal cup which looks much better than the water bottle which I feel ruined the photo.
These images are at two different parties but I think they go well together because of the similarities of both images, like the fact they are both laughing and the type of photo is just very similar in general. Originally the image on the right was green but I edited it to pink as the green was not a nice tone and I prefer the pink, because it’s as if the photos were taken at the same time and place. They also look better as a pair this way.
These images of me and my friends were taken on two different types of cameras. The top two photos were at a Halloween party where we were all dressed up, these were taken on a small digital camera. I like the way these came out because I like the exposure on them and the neutral colours. The other 4 images were taken on a photobooth camera at another party I went to with my friends. These images are colourful in themselves so I didn’t add any fake lighting colours to them. I turned the exposure up for all of them to make it brighter and look clearer so all the colours stood out without adding any unnatural ones.
