Portrait Story
This story about Manjari Sharma, showed me what the difference is between a portrait and a snap shot. It has made me realize that a snap shot is posing and almost fakish. But a portrait shows the model naturally beautiful. The model should look comfortable, like themselves, not like they are trying to be someone or something else just natural. A portrait should convey comfortableness, ones vulnerability, there true selves. Manjari Sharma showed people in a truly natural place, the shower. When we are in the shower we are just our selves, theres no one there to change for or put a mask on for, so we act and look the way we really are and that is why this photo shoot is a brilliant idea. I know for future reference now that my photos need to be more natural and not as posy as I normally make them.
