Portrait Techniques

Playing with eye contact - I like this technique because it adds its own style. This way of taking pictures shows that when you take a picture of someone else or yourself, it doesn't have to be absolutely perfect. It doesn't really have to be planned out. It could also capture someone's emotions or different connections. I would like to work with this because I want to have a different variety of pictures. 

Take a series of shots - This technique makes me think about all of the things that I could capture that were very unexpected. There could be multiple fun photos in one small period of time. It would also be cool to do an action shot so you could all of what they are doing. 

Hold your camera on an angle - I think that this technique would be fun to experiment with. When taking pictures you could really capture different things in the photo that don't usually stand out. You could use it as something that could get a different views of the subject. 

Experiment with subject expressions - This technique could be difficult in some way. But taking these pictures while illustrating peoples expressions could make the viewer really feel the subjects feelings. Many people seem to kind of close up, but if you can just see their faces there is something that always gives away what they are feeling.
