A Mad Mess

Walking around Jerusalem, my dad came across this barber shop and spontaneously decided to get a hair cut.

There, we met Elazar, a Kazakhstanian from Queens who works in a barber shop in Israel. He was incredibly friendly and was open to me taking his portrait.

I personally love this portrait because the viewer is able to see his personality through the elements in the image such as his unique surroundings.

The Burden of Religion

Infantile Amnesia

When creating this portrait, I sought to go out of my comfort zone and create something different from the rest of my portfolio. I kept away from the dark, sharp shadows I typically use, and instead used soft natural light throughout the image. And unlike the rest of my portfolio, this portrait gives off a “clean”, neutral feel where the viewer is able to breathe due to the negative space surrounding the model and vase.

While getting out of my comfort zone, I also decided to play with some of the elements and principles of art such as line, shape, negative space, and emphasis in my photo. I also sought out to create interesting body language with my model.

To create this whole scene, I placed my model on a ledge off the stairs of my house, chose a green dress to beautifully contrast her red hair and create a pop of color in the image, and used a vase to further the element of shape in my picture.
