The goal was to capture everyday life through the use of portraiture. In the lesson, it was noted that beginner photographers should start with simple shots of people in a natural setting. With this in mind, I took this shot of my mother looking out the window. I’m satisfied with this image as the light highlights her face clearly, while allowing depth and contrast in the shadows behind. For edits, I converted to B&W, brought out the shadows of the jacket, painted white over some of the jacket to bring back some detail, performed a mix of sharpening and softening on the skin, added clarity, contrasted, dimmed the sun light, and blurred the left side.
