3 ideas for for my flyer

1. A portrait of me and i would have a prop that would represent me for example i cold have me blowing bubbles and have that in colour or even me with giant lolly pop and that would also be in colour. And have either something i say ever day or a quote i like. I like these photos of the little girl because its bold and colourful but all i would have in colour on my flyer would be the lollypop.












This photo is exactly what i would have as well with the bubbles in colour but i would be in black and white.








2. I would 4-5 people in a row and have there props they have in colour or something they think represents them in colour but they would have a white background behind them and they would be in black and white.

Research

I have been looking at a photography company which is called Venture Photography because it is exactly how i want my portraits to come out. Here are some pictures that i have got from the website do show my idea.






This is how i want my pictures to turn out, i want the picture black and white but the prop they have to show their character i want in color as i think that it stands out and makes it more bold and even more interesting. The background is going to be a plain white background as i think it if it were different the whole point of the picture would be less focused on and the model and there prop is all i want the audience to be focused on. (with the quote at the bottom)













I love these photos as it shows the character of these two men. By looking at the photos you can see clearly that they either loves music or plays the guitar or even both. And the tattoos shows that they have got that punk/rock side to them. This is what i want the audience to do when they look at my photos because they might have different opinions on what my photos represent. But the picture to the right i would keep him in black and white and have his guitar in color or maybe even his tattoos as well because they are also showing his character.










I may even have the background in some of the black as i think the man and his baby still are bold and you are not drawn away from them. I think this picture is good as you normally see the models in the centre of the photo but in this one he is at he side. I will use this technique as well as it is a good idea.














I came across this photo as well and i am now going to put all the portraits that i will have taken into a frame like this because i think it is different and cool as well. But i will do two of these i will have one as the same in black and white and the other i will have as colour as this picture is really colourful and even though behind her there is a pink background me as the audience is still focused on her because she has a red top on which stands out so you are drawn to her.











I really liked this photo and really would of wanted to have done a couple of photos like this but i changed my mind of doing this as it will be too time consuming and i will have to learn how to make this effect as well as i do not know how to do it. I think this photo is unique as i have never seen a picture like this before.

Here are some pictures i have found with quotes on them which is what i am also going to have on my photos.

I think this photo is great as you can see what the kind of person he is. Also i was just going to type my quotes on my photos but i am going to use this idea because i think it is effective and its different as well and thats what i want people to think when they look at my photography.





Here is another photo that i liked as well and again i think this photo is effective.
