Jerry Avenaim


This image by Jerry Avenaim is an example of lighting which I would like to put across in my own work. Avenaim has decided to go with low-key lighting, I like the soft lighting and how the figure almost stands out from the background. I also like how the photographer has created shadow on one side of the models face, which I believe brings out the shapes and contours of his face. I will also be paying attention to the way the image is cropped, when taking portrait shots I will crop in a similar way. I also like the relaxed pose the model has and feel this mood comes out in the image.
