simply confident (potw)

My picture is about beauty but in a stripped and absolute peaceful direction. It shows how someone's beauty can still shine through without crazy backgrounds or in a metaphorical way, without the glitz and the glamour. You can see the confidence radiate from the model without anything else being in the picture but her distinct and still features.

 

I used simplicity, which introduced a contrast between the black white wall and the model by having her look darker and having more focus on her. Selective focus was also used to bring attention to the model and her striking features to show simple details like her braids or earrings which added a mood to the picture.

 

By using an aperture of 5.3 it allowed more focus on the model to create a still and simple photograph. An Iso of 800 was also used to still add brightness to the picture but still keep a balance between shayla and the background. The picture is in black and white since the picture would've been too 'noisy' and take away from the mood or idea of the photo and adds a clear and clean cut to the picture.
