Classmate's Style

Since a lot of Sebastian's photos focus on plants and nature, I decided to focus on those things too. Since he needed to be in the portrait, I had him be in the background so I can blur him out and focus on the plant. A lot of his pictures also focus on one subject and blur in the background, too.

This photo is similar to Lotus's style because it isn't zoomed up on the subject and it doesn't have any vibrant colors.She usually uses black and white, but occasionally there are a few colors. Her subjects are always off to the side- never in the center of the picture, and are zoomed out. They also have simple or natural expressions, nothing too unique.

For a few of her series, Frankie put/combined two different photos into one. I thought the barrier kind of made this picture look like two different ones; one picture of Frankie combined with one of others socializing. Like Lotus, she often takes photos farther away from the person.

A lot of Benji's portraits are up-close shots of someone, who usually aren't looking directly at the camera. He also uses black and white a lot, and the model has a somewhat blank or simple expression.

Kurt like to make/have his photos contain a lot of blue and black. Usually people use just black and white, but a lot of his pictures I saw were mainly or only blue and black (a darker background). He also enjoys taking blurred pictures, so I used motion in this portrait of him and Photoshopped it so that it was more grey with a bluer background.

One of the biggest styles Alex uses is texture. A majority of her photos have one or more texture layered on top of the original photo. In this photo, I took a somewhat unique pose (like she does), took a picture of the carpet, and layered on top of her.
