كتاب التصوير الفوتوغرافي
Photojournalism
Portraiture for the media first developed into a distinct style in the German illustrated maga zines of the 1930s , and blossomed in the 1940s and 1950s in Picture Post and Life magazines . This type of portrait aims to catch the eye of the viewer as he or she turns the pages . The photographer may have to cooperate with or be directed by a picture editor , who may give specific instructions on subject approach . Shooting usually takes place in the sitter's own environment .
When you start your session , begin by selecting the most attractive or unusual loca tion . Since you have to offer the editor some choice , it is advisable to use more than one set - up . Photograph a writer , for example , in his or her study , or at the scene of one of the novels . Avoid static poses pictures should be lively and informal . Do not include too much in a picture , and think twice about placing your subject centrally - an off - center composition is always visually stronger . When ever possible , try to give the viewer something out of the ordinary , either by shooting from an unusual angle or by employing an original treatment . A touch of humor ( see pp . 102-3 ) is always welcome , but you should beware of ridiculing your sitter – it may alienate future subjects . And always make sure that you choose a style and approach for your photo journalistic portrait that relates to your sitter's identity , character or occupation .
Lighting a dark setting A Interesting locations are often difficult to light . I used a tungsten - halogen lamp , see diagram above , for this portrait of two restaurateurs in their cellar . Direct flash would have created excessive reflections in the bottles , and the black walls ruled out bounced flash . Pentax 6x7 , 55 mm , 1/15 sec at f11 , Ektachrome 160 .
Making use of an unusual pose In editorial photography it is essential to catch the reader's eye and hold it . Here , I used an eye catching pose and the visual similarity between the statue and the sitter as compositional device to attract the eye . Pentax 6x7 , 55 mm . 1/30 sec at f16 , Ektachrome 200 .
Capturing familiar sights This picture was shot for a photojournalistic story on London's Sunday markets . For this type of work try to find interesting people in particular , individuals who seem to fit a stereotype . The viewer generally prefers a photograph which confirms his ideas to one which shatters his illusions . This subject fulfills the typical image of a cheerful street market vendor . Pentax Spotmatic , 50 mm , 1/125 sec at f5.6 , Agfa CT18 .
