How do you take intense, colorful, and vivd photoshoots like picture below?
I have been wanting to take photoshoots with colors on the skin and in the background, as seen in the picture i attached but I'm not aware of all the tools that i need and what exactly to do. Any feedback?
Is there a term for people who doesn't like their photos taken?
Self-conscious. Most people who dislike having their picture taken are expecting a bad photograph. This comes from having seen unattractive pictures of themselves in the past. Decent photographers do not show their subjects bad pictures of themselves. People whose pictures are unpleasant can learn to pose, either from a photographer, or by mugging in the bathroom mirror. Don't laugh--it works. They can learn what a good smile looks like, which side of their face is the most attractive, and how to turn their head to the camera. Practice, practice, practice.
What kind of pictures do you most like to take?
I enjoy taking photos of almost everything.. I love to take pictures of landscapes and nature in general.. you know, photos of the sky, sunsets, the moon, mountains, rainbows, etc etc. And animals too, of course :P I also like to photograph people.. I think thats great because of all the different expressions. hmm I'm very interested in fashion photography. unfortunately I'm not a professional photographer [yet] and I can't take photos of models, but I take pictures of my sister, so she's my model for now lols. And I take light painting photographs like these: http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=light+pa... it's so fun and bright.. I love it :) Photography is truly an amazing art <3
Why do some people look totally different in pictures than in real life?
It isn’t just in your head.When you take a selfie at arm’s-length, with a smartphone, for example, since cameras have either one lens, or several in close proximity, you end up with a slight fisheye effect. When cameras take photos, they separate the foreground, middle ground, and background very differently than two human eyes do. This exaggerates the depth difference between parts of your face, making them look disproportionate.Your nose can appear significantly larger and rounder, relative to the rest of your face, because it is perceived as the foreground, while your ears can look much smaller, as they are perceived as the background. The rest of your face tends to look slightly rounded off, more narrow, and less structured, with minor asymmetries exaggerated.The closer you are to the lens, the more distorted your face will appear, but no matter how far you are from the lens, there will always be distortion.This also is true for the rest of your body.Depending on someone’s actual features, lens distortion can work for, or against them. This is why some people look significantly more attractive, or significantly less attractive in photos. This is the real reason people say the camera adds pounds. The less structured someone looks, the more body fat are perceived to have.What is really interesting is that there is a very simple way around this distortion. Take a photo in the mirror and flip it. The distortion will be gone.This is how others see you in real life.To illustrate this, here are two photos of me taken two minutes apart in about the same spot, with the same lighting, at a similar angle, and both with the same neutral expression. One is a regular selfie, and one is a mirror selfie I flipped post factum.Regular Selfie (extremely distorted):Flipped Mirror Selfie (not distorted):
How do you edit photos and make them look dusty like this?
If you look closely at some pictures, it will look like there are dust particles on them. It makes the picture seem more vintage I guess, please list apps/ programs/ websites etc. Examples of these pics: http://honololou.tumblr.com/image/47501282929 http://honololou.tumblr.com/image/47321549498 http://honololou.tumblr.com/image/47321371596
I never look like I'm wearing makeup in pictures! Any makeup tips?
Try perhaps using more lipstick or lipgloss, curling your lashes and adding some mascara - Maybe a slight touch of a very light blush as well! You seem to be pretty young so I would stay away from a heavy face of make up for now (for everyday wear anyways), but once you start feeling more comfortable, you could venture out to some eyeliner, and eventually eye shadows and contouring. I would recommend for you to check out some Youtube videos onthe subject! Youtube has a gigantic beauty community with countless tutorials, product reviews, start-up kit ideas, etc. Make-up is very much a trial/error thing. Everyone of us struggles with it at first, but practice makes perfect. Good luck :-)
Can you edit photos on a phone and make them look professional? If so, how?
Answer is Yes!! To an extent. As many other replies mentioned various apps like Snapseed, PicsArt, VSCO, LightRoom are excellent to do the job. Which one gives you best result depends on one you are proficient in. I usually use PicArt in mobile & LightRoom & Photoshop in PC.Lets see some PicsArt edited pics which I had taken randomly 1–2 years back with my OnePlus One. You can do much better than I did and produce excellent images.A place in my office where we hang our raincoats during rainy season:A Car headlight:A glass of Rum:A laptop keyboard:A hanging lightlamp:A miniature statue:A Denim pattern:And, finally my one & half months old son Siddhant:
Should I let my daughter do a nude photoshoot?
Last week, a Hollywood photographer approached me about getting my daughter into Hollywood modeling and acting. I'd LOVE for my daughter to do this. She's already done pageants and everyone tells her that she is supercute. He said that he has photographed other child stars like Lindsay Lohan and Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears and that he got them to be famous on the Disney Channel. He said that my daughter's would have to be a nude photoshoot, but that it would be taseful and classy. He said that those are the types of photos that the executivess at Disney are looking for, and that he would personally send them to Disney and hook her up with an agent. She would have a sheet on top of her chest and she would only be showing her bare butt. He said that he knows a lot of Hollywood producers and that he is personal frinds with Steven Spielberg. Tomorrow, I am supposed to drop her off at his studio apartment so he can do photoshoot for a few hours. Does this sound legitimate? Should I let my daughter do the nude photoshoot or should I refuse to let her do the naked pictures, but let her do a regular photoshoot. By the way, he discovered us at one of her pageants. It was during the "Miss Missouri Little Princess Bikini Pageant."
