Anatomy of a Photograph: & Props

INTRO

This is the 5th installment of Anatomy of a Photograph. It is a number of small things you can do, when combined together, take your images from good to great. This blog combines many of the things I’ve gone over in the previous 4 Anatomy of a Photograph blogs.

ALMOST EVERYTHING… & PROPS

FORE, MID, BACK: Similar to the 3rd installment of Anatomy of Photograph, this shot includes something in the foreground, mid ground, and background. The difference this time is the subject is in the foreground rather than the midground.

PROPS: Themed sessions will keep a family coming back multiple times a year. This shot is fall themed. We have fall foliage, pumpkins, and fall signs.

LEADING LINES: Rather than posting the family square with the plants behind them, I positioned them at a 45 degree angle which forms a leading line to the family.
