Fashion Photography ethics

1. They fixed her hair, no fly aways. They made her neck longer and her face thinner and her lips fuller and her eyes bigger and her eyebrows higher.

2. I don't think it really matters as long as the person that they are using agrees to it. How other people feel about it is their problem.

3. Yes, it can hurt someones self esteem

4. the little flaws are ok, changing her face shape and stuff isn't. its too fake

5. Fashion photography is mainly just used for making things and people look picture perfect for business, to make profit.

6. All photography is a different perception of art in the persons eye.

Self Portrait

Tips :

1. Get Closer to the subject, if its too small it won't make an impact.

2. Setting in which you make your pictures is important because they help the viewer understand your subject better.

3. A self portrait doesn't have to be of your face.

I really like this self portrait because the subject is very pretty 

and she has a very exotic appearance and her eyes were the

first things i noticed.

I like this self portrait because the fur coat caught my attention.

i like the colors and the winter feel.

I like this portrait because the ring is really pretty and 

the background is nice.

I like this portrait because its funny and it shows

a very fun personality. 

I really like this picture. I like the lighting and the 

sun exposure. I also like her ear ring 

I like this casual portrait because it gives you a 

feel as if you were there with them.

My Self portrait will probably be of me of course. it will include my face because I'm conceded and i love talking pictures, I'm thinking about taking it outside maybe where theres good sunlight and maybe a nice green scenery. I want the picture to have good sun exposure and i want it to be bright.
