When taking photos of my friends I mostly did this in front of a brick wall as I think this can be an interesting but not a distracting background for portraits. This reminded me of some sort of album cover or a “gangster”, so i asked each of my friends to “pose like a gangster” in front of the wall and they all had similar reactions which I found amusing. I also tried this too as part of my self portraits. I think Hannah’s and Ellie’s came out best, especially Hannah’s as there was a lense flare which I really liked and the wall had a really nice effect on it. In terms of picture quality I think Ellie’s worked best as I like the lighting and composition.
