Portrait Project
The project was to take 30 portraits. 10 of each type, traditional, non-traditional, and abstract. Traditional portraits are supposed to show a representation of what the person looks like and not reveal too much about the person other then their looks. Non-traditional portraits should reveal something about the person, a hobby, passion, etc. Finally, an abstract portrait is a portrait where the face is obstructed and you can not see the entire person.

Abstract Portraits
This project made me feel like a professional photographer in a way. I was directing people and planning how to take these pictures and it reminded me on school pictures or sports team pictures. I enjoyed taking pictures of people and I think this is a skill that is very common and should be known with photography.
