Of the family portraits I had taken, I feel like my best one was my photo of Alayna walking in the snow. The photo features Alayna standing at a 3/4 view, smiling towards the camera in front of a snowy sunset background. The soft orange lighting illuminating her right side as well as her smile reveals a light-hearted personality that can be construed as serene and inviting. I took this photo off-center and had her mainly on the right side of the photograph as she is facing the left, creating a composition which highlights both her face and the sunset and making the photo more interesting. The snowy scene in the background contributes to the serene mood as well, the sunset creating a soft purple shadow over the snow and giving the photo an interesting color scheme. Overall, the image is successful due to the calming mood and lighting created by the scenery. The background helps capture Alayna's content mood in this picture and makes the photo all the more interesting to view.
