Foodbank Re-shoot 1

After my first shoot at the Foodbank I was eager to return and shoot better and more simple portraits. As a non-portraiture photographer, there is a lot for me to learn so I took on board the advise given from my last tutorial.

Strengths:
- Found 3 walls outside to test against.
- Volunteers open to having there image taken and were honest with their answers.
- The option to use natural light was very successful so I was able to work with my camera settings with ease.
- I used my portrait lens for this shoot to test it out and it makes such a great difference to the images.


Weaknesses:
- Only 4 people photographed on this specific day, as each day at the Foodbank they have a different number of volunteers show up. I would like to have more than 4 portraits as my final images.
- Still not as confident as could be: need to step out more.
- My instructions and directions are better but still could be improved.
- I easily panicked when taking the photos and I felt like I was taking there time so was rushing to get the images done.
