How to Create Your Perfect Portrait
By: Catarina Garza & Trisha Walters
> designate a location that will be used for the background of the portrait
> adjust your settings to compensate for the lighting
-if the sun is bright, adjust your ISO to a lower value such as 200 or 400
-if you want a blurred background, adjust your aperture to a smaller value of 4.5 or 5.0
-you can also use a faster shutter speed, like 1/250 or 1/300, to let less light in
> Insure that the image is in focus in the view finder
> Take the photo
> Take additional photos with your model in different poses (smiling, smiling, etc.) and work with your model to make sure they are comfortable
>Helpful hints: Take photos at sunrise or sunset for an added golden glow to your portrait. Take portraits during overcast weather for soft lighting with no shadows in your photos!
> Congratulations! You just took some perfect portraits!
