I had a nice photo session with Spike and my mom to complete the Portrait of a Friend assignment, part 1 of my 2 home projects. I wanted to capture the essence of our interactions with Spike, so I explored photos of both life from his vantage point and our interactions with him. I am really happy with the variety of actions captured because it conveys my intended quality of realism and honest - to - life photographs. This is why I did not go out of my way to fully stylize my clothing or the background; I want for the focus to be on the mood of the subject and how the subject interacts with the typical environment. I am going to go through these pictures and choose my top 3 - 4 favorites for editing. Then, I will consider the effects of pairing the photos with a piece of writing about Spike, as a way to further enhance the personal importance of the content. I want for the viewer to truly understand that this is an artistic endeavor of expression, rather than a simple portrait series.
