Macro photos.

Art Photography

Application
Art to me is a way of expressing your feelings and being creative. Art can be anything as long as you are expressing yourself .

 Ansel Easton Adams was an art photographer most famous for his picture named Moon and Half dome. He was mostly known because of his black and white pictures of the american west.
Alot of art photographers use conceptual photography. Conceptual photography is the use of an idea or a concept to make a photograph. Even though there are objects used on the photograph it is strictly abstract.
 Not many photographers today make their photos black and white, where as in the past it would be used alot more.


 Context
 The context of the picture has a majour impact on the art. The surroundings of the picture effects the way you see the art. If it is framed it looks professional and if not it looks pretty amateur. If its stuck on a dull wall it will stand out but it would look less important than others.

Techniques
The picture reaches its audience by being put in a gallery or sold. It may have been seen before seeing as it is just abstract you may have been to the place where the picture was taken before. Most of art photography is not done in a studio it is done outdoors as there are some amazing places to see. But with a studio you could make it exactly how you wanted which is why some artists do that. Most of the art is printed on paper and then framed on a wall.

Fashion Photography

Fashion photography is not really about the clothes as you would usually think. Its just about looking perfect and the photographer captures this in the most suited way. No one is as they look, Everyone has been edited.

Fashion Photography is used mainly to advertise skin products or clothes. They make the models look perfect and put them in an advert for skincare products. Then people think if they use that they will have perfect skin like them.Vogue uses lots of fashion photography for its book

Different photographers use different techniques. For example Cecil Beaton used different scenery which looked kind of magical and he said that he tries to make a new world within the pictures that he creates. His pictures were very theatrical as he was very unique and imaginitive.

Portraiture

Application

Portraiture is capturing an image of someone. Mostly the portraits dont show what they are actually like. But some photographers wait for the right moment where the person stops posing and shows there true self. For example Robert Capa was allowed to take make a portrait of Picasso. Picasso done alot of poses but when he realised Robert Capa would not take a picture of him posing his face dropped and that was when Robert Capa took the picture.

Context
You see portraits around peoples houses, art museums and shops.

Technique
Some people do poses and others do nothing some dont even smile. Some people show their true selves and others make themselves look like there high up and important. for example the french king had his portrait of him on top of a horse to make him look bigger than he actually is. Cindy Sherman made her pictures look like they were done in the 1950s.

Photo-Journalism

Application

Photo-journalism is like a time machine, as you can take an image of a moment in time. it also used to be the truth. People used to rely on photos, hense the saying "The camera never lies" But that is no longer the case because of technology today. Henri Cartier - Bresson is a famous photographer for his decisive photos. He would go to a place and visualise the possibilities of what could occur. He would then wait for something to happen and get a shot of it.

Context
photo-journalism is used in magazines, News, Books and the Internet. Images are used in these for advertising or evidence to back up a story.

Technology & Techniques

Henri Cartier - Bresson used a reveloutionary camera called the Leica. This camera was small and portable. Robert Capa also used this camera when he was taking pictures during the war. Tony Vaccaro was issued a Speed graphic camera which was the standard kind of camera for a photographer soldier but this was inconvenient. as it was ridiculously large. He was not as wealthy as Robert Capa so he could not afford a Leica camera so instead he bought an Argus C3.
