Best Actor Head Shot

This was just a formal, yearbook like photo. This is of my model who helped me to take photo’s of different types of emotions. This photo was taking in the Mercy art room, photo studio. I took it in this spot because it gave me the best chance of taking a good photo. To get this photo I told my model that we needed a photo that would be similar to one that would be in a yearbook, he then took this photo. One element of art is shape and form, because of the way that the background is neutral, thus giving a lot of shape and form in the photo. The principle that I used was emphasis, this is because I wanted to emphasize my model and I did this by having a neutral background.
