Shop task

For this task with my group mate i was supposed to produce photographs inside shop and choose 5 of them that i consider successful. The first thing, which i would like to mention, is that this exercise was quite complicated to do as it was necessary to communicate with strangers and ask their permission to make images. More than that, i need try to make these people relax and just enjoy the moment in order to reach wanted result. In the end of the shooting, i was so proud of myself that i could overcome all fears and find a contact with the models. This task helped me to develop my camera skills and confidence in interaction with others.

The most amazing thing about these pictures is that a woman smiles and looks directly in the camera. So eye connection with photographer is found and it makes spectator feel joy and calmness of the model. Then, i edited lighting a little (add some warm colors) in both digital captures to emphasize cosiness and uniqueness of the cafe.

As for these images, they were made in Bramber House. If take 3 of them together, they create narrative of a place and representation of relationship between people. On the first one, different kinds of containers with food were shown (like establishing shot). On second one, interaction of customers can be seen (both of them want to help consumer). And on the last one, there is a girl who has just performed her job successfully. She smiles and looks really natural. There is a feeling that she enjoys her life and is ready to treat positively and politely all customers.Indeed, i need to use such strategy in my project. To put it differently, there should be connection between all photos so as to viewers can get desired meaning. Also, 2 last photos have clear focus of interest (customers) and blurred environment. That was applied in Photoshop to underline what is really important in the image and what is not.
