- News related photographs tend to be kind of overly dramatic, whether it be intentional or not, mostly because we like to look at things that are unusual or interesting, and not just every day images.
- Snapshots can only be taken once, whereas digital images can be taken several times. Therefore, snapshots are usually very posed and unnatural. Snapshots are rarely candid because you never know how they are going to turn out.
- Advertisement photographs tend to have very intense lighting and everything in the image (or the part the photographer wants you to focus on) is very clear. The lighting and sharpness has to be turned up so that the image can be projected largely and so that a person can easily see what is happening otherwise the product will not look appealing. Fashion photography tends to be set against a solid background in order to illuminate the clothing and model. The lighting is always very intense and direct to show detail in clothing. The contrast is also usually high to show detail.
- Film still are very emotional usually because the film still need to be interesting. Sometimes they are very picturesque. Usually though they are exciting and have a lot of motion.
Describe some common aesthetic aspects of yearbook photos and/or senior pictures.
- I never had a senior pictures but I have seen a ton. They are VERY posed, VERY unnatural, and personally I think people look very silly in the pictures. They really do not show much about the person. They have a nice natural lighting in order to make skin, hair and clothing look very clean and perfect. The poses are usually around nature and awkward, or in studios in weird poses.
