Portriat Assigment

From the article we read, here, I tried my best to apply all the information given to me in this image. From both this assignment as well as the article I have learned that a portrait takes more thought than a snapshot. A snapshot is primarily a photo taken during the action of something and is usually not posed. With taking this photo I did and did not try and pose my model. Asked her to just simply stand there. Iam pleased with this photo, and I really do like the colors shown within it. Usually in portraits the model is shown from the shoulders up and/ or from the chest up. In this image I also tried to use that way to make it look more like an actual portrait. Over the course of the year I have also found a realization of compostion and I feel as if Iam improving on composition within the pictures that I take.
