First Photography Shoot

I took my first photos for the project this morning. I decided to walk around Leicester city center and look for inspiration. I used my Sony Alfa 6600 to take the photos. I took all the photos with the same aperture F 2.8. This is related to weather conditions. Namely, outside, where I took most of the photos, it was very cloudy, which resulted in little light. I took black and white photos in RAW and JPEG format.


After the shoot, I then created contact sheets. This is a result.




Taking photos of people working is difficult because few people want to be photographed, and those who do start posing and it looks unnatural.


F 2.8, 1/13, ISO-100, 0, 41mm


F 2.8, 1/80, ISO-100, 0, 26mm

Another problem is lack of time. Most people who agreed to let me take photos of them gave me a few dozen seconds because they were at work and had a lot on their minds. I now know that I will have to spend a lot of time to find suitable models.
