Inspiring potraiture


Portrait inspiration, sort of



I chose this portrait of surfer/bum Keith Malloy photographed by fellow surfer Jeff Johnson for the portrait research assignment.


I liked this portrait because of the even light and the use of the flowers for the background. I also liked the candid style of the picture that the look on his face creates. It isn't posed, and that shows his personality. 

I would like to try something similar for my classmate portrait assignment, even if my subject doesn't have a scraggly beard to stick flowers in.
