Yellow Shots:

I chose these yellow shots because they capture the essence of my vision of finding natural beauty or true beauty in people. These images show my focus, Angelina, in a different light, where one side of her face is dark while the other side is bright. This helps to show many textures in the natural flow of her hair, the hints of light in her eyes, and other parts of her nose and lips. It highlights the theme I have chosen, as it shows her identity to be different and unique and not perfect for social media.

Green Shots:

The green shots I chose support more of my vision than the yellow photos. Due to taking the photos in a dark space, some of the photos are a little blurry and not perfectly in focus, so I chose the ones that were the most clear to show more of the naturalness in my subject, Angelina. These photos also look more dynamic, as the focus is drawn to the left side of the face, as people can observe the different elements that create my vision. I took the photos with Angelina sitting towards the left side because on the left side of her face, she has a mole on her forehead, which is a symbol in my shots. I believe that it is a part of her identity and not hiding it makes her beautiful and perfect in her own way.

Red Shots:

I chose these 2 red shots from the green shots. I believe that these two photos connect my vision together. The first photo is of my subject, Angelina’s face, while the second photo is of her hair. These are two important elements that show the different textures and features in the theme. From the first photo, the viewers can see many elements on the bright side of her face, which glows in the photo. It shows the glossiness in her eyes that have a hint of light, showing a sense of liveliness. The hints of light on her lips and nose add to more texture and naturalness in the photo. The most important symbol is the mole on her forehead, which represents her identity and how she is being unique as herself and not covering it up. The second photo of her hair shows different textures, as every hair is going in different directions, making it look very relaxed and calm. The openness in her hair shows how she is being herself and not trying to imitate someone who is “perfect”.
