I love your pictures of the boy and the over the shoulder shot. I think you could explore more with your self-portraits, experiment different ways to capture yourself without the camera being in the shot and pushing yourself to reveal more of yourself through the imagery. Maybe there are props you could include. Great start!
Hi Katya, I agree with Jackie here. These are a great start! I love the first 3 images and the last image. I am not sure about the 4th and 5th image. I would maybe replace them. Explore more with different settings. The 2nd and the 3rd image are similar. Maybe keep one (up to you to choose which one but probably the other person). Good luck!
Katya -- I looooove the images of the boy. I think they are really well shot and intriguing. Good use of editing and poses! I could see these being used for a photo journal or something -- with a story about the boy next to the image. I think for your first self portrait you could play around with it a bit more... maybe look into the mirror from a different angle and play around with the placement of the camera. I also think it'd be fun to play around with the last image and utilizing color, as the combination of different colors in the clothing might make it more exciting!
Hi Katya. The third and fourth images are really, really strong. Good use of space and body language. Image 1 and 2 seem a bit forced and stiff, totally unlike the other images that feel so natural. That's how you want the others to feel. The last two are in the right direction, but not visually successful just yet. Good Luck! Andy
Hey Katya! I think that overall you know the concepts and what you're looking for to be 100% honest I think that all of these would work better in black and white especially the 4th image. I think that the energy is so concentrated in his positioning and composure but I don't think that the color adds anything I think that black and white make it more dramatic and interesting. I would also swap out one of the self images you have to something that has a little more variety like angle of you and the camera at the same time maybe try an outside environment or a darker room with only one light source.
