Final portrait photos


Portrait
These are my final portrait images, each picture has different lyrics or poems that are personal and mean something to the person in the picture. This is personal and i think it makes the pictures powerful and meaningful and that is what i was aiming for within this project. 
These images do not follow my proposal as i found it difficult to take pictures of people who i didn't know, so i had to come up with a different idea and this idea stood out to me.

"When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that i'd like to know them"
     Annie Liebovitz






This is my favourite of the three, you can see in the picture that the subject looks happy, but the lyrics in his face may say different. This is a different way to understand what someone is feeling through a picture. 


These photos may appear more graphics style than photography but there is meaning behind these photos. These photos are personal to each individual and its up to the view to decide how they see these photos.


In this picture the subject can be seen as angry but the lyrics within him could say different, it makes the viewer look more closely and take the time to analyse the photo.

My images don't relate to the research i did into portrait, i had a totally different idea for this section but encountered many problems in pre production so i came up with a fresh new idea which reflected emotion and feelings within different individuals.
